I brought this herb to United States and many thanks to the Auntie at Sg. Maong's market who taught me the simplest way to cook Ka Cha Ma. This is such a delicious and healthy dish, especially good for ladies. There are only four ingredients in this dish and it takes about one to two hour to prepare and cook.
Ingredients:
1 lb 4 oz Chicken, bite-sized (about 1kg)
1 cup Ka Ja Ma herb
1/3 cup ginger, smashed (about the size of your palm)
2 cup Japanese rice wine
Directions:
(1) Rinse well the chicken and pat dry
(2) When the utensil is ready, turn to low heat, lightly fry the herb, 1 minute
(3) Remove the herb and turn to medium heat again, lightly brown the chicken for both sides
(4) Add in ginger and stir fry
(5) Add in the herb, stir fry to coat well
(6) Pour in rice wine and bring to boil
(7) Turn to low heat, simmer the chicken for about 45 minutes or until the chicken are tender
(8) Serve immediately
Note: Don't bother on its final look, smell it and taste it for your surprise and contrast satisfaction.
