[COOKING REVIEW + GIVEAWAY] Ikan Brand #4 Rendang Chicken

If you love hot curries, you'll love rendang. Often being described as a dry curry, it is a must-have during festivities such as Hari Raya. But with Ikan Brand's instant rendang paste, you don't really need an occasion to get a taste of this classic, full-of-spice creation. This post is also specially dedicated to the Muslims who are going to celebrate Hari Raya in less than a month. Selamat Berbuka Puasa! :)

Prepare your chicken by cutting it into desired sizes. Stir fry chicken with one packet of Ikan Brand rendang paste over low heat until aromatic. Add water to simmer until chicken is tender and gravy become thicker. It took awhile to cook because you have to wait for it to "dry" up but it's worth the wait. Approximately 30 minutes.

Last touch - a packet of coconut milk. 

Once the coconut milk has been added to the blend, it creates a rich, creamy base.

Also add some curry leaves to give more fragrance to rendang.

[COOKING REVIEW + GIVEAWAY] Ikan Brand #3 Seafood Tom Yam Soup

I have been craving for Tom Yam ever since my trip to Bangkok last month. The thought of Tom Yam makes me drool - it is so deliciously hot and bursting with strong spicy flavours. Many people think that Tom Yum is too intimidating or hard to attempt at home. But what if I tell you, I can cook Tom Yum Soup within 30 minutes? Yep, you heard it right, thanks to Ikan Brand's instant Tom Yam paste, it takes as little as 30 minutes to make that flavourful, spicy, sour and fragrant Tom Yum Soup base at home!

Let's see what ingredients I have for today! (from top to bottom): 

fish, squid, tomatoes, enoki mushrooms, straw mushrooms, Chinese cabbage, onions, taupok.

Stir fry one packet of Ikan Brand sauce until fragrant. Add water 600ml (3 cups) and all the ingredients. Cook over medium heat until boil and garnish with peppermint leaves. Add lime juice if necessary.

Everyone of us loves this soup which is really appetizing with mixture of hot, spicy and sour taste as well as sweetness from the seafood. I bet one can have at least 2 bowls of rice to go with this.
