Kerabu Kay, Nyonya Poached Chicken And Prawns Salad



Hello everyone! It has been almost 7 months since my last post and I am ready to come out from my all too long hiatus. 

A long hours and stressful job, daily gym routine and other works and projects on the side made me rather selfish with the little spared time I am left with - spending time with friends and love ones or catching up on my reading became my priorities for the last few months.

I have missed talking about food; one would have thought working in a kitchen gives me plenty of opportunity to do that but unfortunately that is not the case. A decision was made to modify my daily routine a little to enable me to start blogging about food again and I can already feel the joy of blogging as I type....

I posted a kerabu dish (Nyonya's answer to Thai yam or salad) a while back and this is another variation using chicken and prawns and dress with a slightly different dressing.

F.Y.I kay = chicken in Hokkien, unlike Nyonya dishes from other part of the country, those from Penang are often named in the Hokkien dialect rather than Malay.



serves 4 as part of a Malaysian meal
you'll need;
1 chicken breast (~350 g), poached, cooled and shredded
10 banana prawns, poached, peeled and halved lengthwise
15 green beans, finely sliced diagonally 
1 large shallot, peeled and sliced lengthwise
6 tbs of desiccated coconut, dry fried until golden
1 stalk of coriander, picked (optional)

for the dressing;
4 tbs of sambal belacan (see below)
1/2 a very juicy lime
2 tbs of sugar
2 tbs of coconut milk
a pinch of salt

sambal belacan;
200 g of dried chilies
80 g of toasted belachan
salt and sugar to taste



Prepare the green beans and shallot and set aside.



Prepare the chicken and prawns and set aside.



For the kerisik - dry fry the desiccated coconut in a pan over moderate heat, stirring constantly until it turns golden.



Prepare the dressing by mixing all the dressing ingredients in a bowl, taste for seasonings and adjust accordingly.



Place all ingredients in a large bowl and pour the dressing over and mix well. Check for seasonings before serving.



A quick and delicious salad is ready.



Serve as part of a Malaysian meal or it will go very well as a snack with some cold beers.

Bilindiği gibi ülkemizde birçok insanın vazgeçilmezleri arasında yer edinir okey oyna aşamaları. Bu oyun en çok 4 kişiyle oynanan, dirtgörtgen taşlar, bu taşları dizeceğiniz istekalar ve bu arada da oyundaki performans ile skoru belirleyen joker taşı kavramı üstünden biçim alan tek oyundur. Okey Salonları Oynaması epey eğlenceli olan, sistemi kavradığınızda ise hâsılat olanaklarınızı arttıracak olanaklar meydana getiren bu oyun, çevrimiçi platformlardaki konumunu de günden güne sağlamlaştırabilmektedir.

Kullanmış olduğunuz cihazların içinde doğrudan süratli tek şeklinde sağlamak yapmanız yerine sunulan tek program menüsüdür. Dilerseniz bilgisayarlarınıza yada cep telefonlarınıza indirdikten ardından yanlızca masa üstündeki salonumuzun logosunu tıklayarak okeye sağlamak yerine kullanıcıları ismi ve şifre kısmı bulunmaktadır. Kimi programlar da ise henüz zor imkanlarla okey salonlarına sağlamak olanağı sunulduğu yerine kullanıcılarımızın görüş açısı yerine fikirlerine mukabil sizlere her vakit tanıtım yapılacaktır. Kimi okey tipleri olarak yer aldığı gibi 101 okey , classic Canlı Okey Siteleri olarak bildiğiniz okey sistemleri içinde okey taşları haricinde birde kağıt olarak okey takımı bulunmaktadır.
