    I had train tickets to London from before Covid started and was finally able to go a couple of weeks ago...
    Stayed in a little hotel near Borough market and finally had the opportunity to eat at MeiMei's!
    Had the Hainanese Chicke Rice and the Char Siu Pork, and it all was so worth the wait! It's all just sooo good!
    I actually knew about MeiMei's since before I ever heard of Uncle Roger, since I've been a huge fan of Borough market for years now, I just never managed to eat there before.
    I'm so glad I finally did!

    I see you use the soup to drizzle on the chicken rice at the end, do you know here in Singapore we up that drizzle sauce to another level, in a bowl we use some of the chicken soup, mix with some soy sauce, little oyster sauce, sugar, sesame oil and Chinese wine (better still if you use some of the chicken fat as well) .. mix them all up and use this "special sauce" to drizzle on top of the chicken and rice at the end and garnish with coriander/spring onion.. way more robust than just the chicken soup on top like what you did in the end... I must say you have done well in cooking the dish and must have tasted the real chicken rice in order to do it right, good luck with yr restaurant X

    My family’s recipe is almost similar, except the chilli we use lots of garlic, fresh chilli, dried chilli and chilli padi grind it up with old ginger, and last add in the chicken broth oil to the chilli. As for the chicken we use light soy sauce mixed with sesame oil.😉

  • @MarskOng
    @MarskOng 3 роки тому +37

    Good job, but I'd do somethings differently:
    - never the siracha sauce; the fermentation of the sauce plus fish sauce in it doesn't match well with the other condiments.
    - other necessary condiment should include the garlic-ginger sauce.
    - chicken should be poached at about 86 degrees celcius, for about 45-55 mins, depending on the size of the chicken. If the water is boiling the skin might tear, but more importantly the meat will not be as juicy and soft.
    - if you have access to galangal (blue ginger) it's the much preferred ginger as the aroma goes well with the pandan and brings the chicken to a different level of flavour.
    - probably more rendered chicken fat needed for the rice?
    Oh yes - this is actually the Singaporean way of doing Hainanese Chicken Rice. In Hainan, the rice is pretty bland and they don't use pandan leaves.

    1) Definitely NOT the proper hainanese way - sorry.
    2) And, whilst Singapore may claim it (and several other dishes as their national dishes), it definitely didn’t originate from Singapore. The route of southern chinese immigration arrived first to the east coast of peninsula Malaysia, of which Singapore was a part, until it broke away in the 60s. So hazard a guess where Hainanese chicken rice came from? Hainan or Malaysia (where it’s also everywhere AND all of Asia agrees it tastes a lot better than Singapore)? Well, as you can see, it’s definitely NOT from Singapore.

  • @clswpiano5623
    @clswpiano5623 3 роки тому +2

    Big disagree on the sriracha (especially as the chili is a big part of my chicken rice experience) but otherwise everything seems right, and it definitely looks a lot like my grandmother's chicken rice (she grew up and learned to cook in Hainan before moving to Singapore), except that I think you could spare a little bit more chicken stock into the rice; my grandmother's rice (and all the best chicken rice places I frequent) all have rice that is slightly discoloured, it rarely looks that white and is clearly different from normal rice.
    Otherwise keep it up, lovely to see Singaporean culture spread.

    • @LemLTay
      @LemLTay 3 роки тому +1

      It's quite close to "yau mak tham" or "yau mok", a local type of gem lettuce that's become popular here in Malaysia and Singapore. Any mild tasting green would be good in here, the usual being wombuk (Napa cabbage), winter melon, daikon (if not too bitter or spicy) or iceberg lettuce. Usually these are added more liberally for home-made versions, to assuage our consciences otherwise it's a carb + protein heavy meal!!
      A very good accompaniment - though a little more work - is a stir-fry of beansprouts to go alongside. It's a specialty of the northern part of Peninsular Malaysia, visitors are exhorted to try the local "nga choi kai" or "beansprouts + chicken" when visiting.
