Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Preare the ingredients
    Preheat the oven to 200C degrees Celcius.
    Wash the chicken pieces, take off the fats with a thin sharp butcher knife. In a glass basin put the chickens, sprinkle over with salts and 2 lemon juice, mix & marinade for 10 minutes.Not too long. Then discards the liquid off into the kitchen sink. Set aside.

  2. 2

    In a non stick big soup pot, heat 1 tbs oil, then add the onion, stir fry for 2 minutes then put the water from the kettle and the chicken pieces, the celery, and heat the water till warm, then add 2 cubes chicken bouillion, choko pieces, potatoes pieces, salt, grinded black pepper, ground nutmeg, and the ground cayenne pepper.

  3. 3

    Put the temp on high till the broth start to boil, add the Green Beans and more water from the kettle if necessary as I love plenty of broth to have it with the rice. Taste the salt, then lower the temp to a simmering point while cover the pot with the lid on. Simmer for 15 minutes, lastly take off the bunch of celery leaves and to add the vege Chards/ Silverbeets and let it cook for furthern 7 minutes. The soup is ready when the potato has softened. Then turn off the temp. Remive pot.

  4. 4

    Preheat the oven to 200C Celcius.
    In a heatproof dish put 1Tbs Rice Bran Oil and mix with the butternuts pieces, to coat with the oil. Bake in the oven for around 20 or less minutes, mine is rather burnt, because I was busy doing the Soup. Transfer the baked Butternuts in a serving dish. Yummy sweet taste. In a serving flat bowl put the Rice, one scoop of the soup veges with the broth pour on top of the rice, put one chicken pieces. To drink a cold glass of a sweet Tropical juice. Buon Appetito.

As an ordinary housewife, I love doing home cooking & baking, or sperimenting world culinary but I'm a learner in the kitchen, so bear patience with me of my mistakes as all depend on time, availability, strength of health,moods & budget. I have to do the recipes that suites to me, to my husband, kid to my own family's preferences, so my cooking is just simple and not a restaurant style.🇮🇩 😚 I spent my childhood till teen age in Indonesia, a country that loves rice, spicy casserole with gravy, light soup bowls with sambals hot chili sauce on top. My mum cook almost daily 🐟🐋🐬fresh fish dishes, a menu that has plenty of vegetables on the table, we oftenly have snack many times a day. Delightful for us as kids to have🍍🍋🌽plenty of tropical fruits at home. In my birth city the sun shine 10 months yearly, the heavy raining season is 2-3 months approximately it depends in what zone location you are.😍My mom is passionately into cooking and I growing up got inspired and learnt from her cooking recipes, but I didnt learn much because I spent most of the time with the school programs.😍🌶Now I live with my husband in New Zealand. I couldn't find many of the ingredients from the Asian stores for my cooking, so I've tried to substitute the ingredients. The results are that the taste of my cooked dishes are not perfect to the original recipes. I've to reduce the quantity of the hot chilies as my husband or invited friends who can't eat hot meal at all but the main thing is that the dishes taste delicious & healthy.My quote: Keep on trying to improve my own cooking. Cooking is just fun and a relaxing moment to enjoy food around the table with my family 😚 🤗
