Cooking Seah Emperor Herbs Chicken Spices using slow cooker
Bought a new Takahi Slow Cooker, I always thought slow cooker are for cooking porridge and soup only, realised we could roast or stew using the slow cooker, hahaha , learn all these from You Tube.
Decided to roast/stew chicken using Seah Emperor Herbs Chicken Spices in the slow cooker. The instructions on the back of the packet required steaming the chicken for two and half hours wrapped in the plastic and aluminium foil provided. I did not use the plastic and aluminium foil provided as I was cooking the chicken in the slow cooker.
Rub the chicken with spices all over and the inside too.
Optional, add mushroom, carrots, chestnuts, etc
I placed the carrots, at the bottom of the pot (see video) , then placed the chicken over the carrots. I forgot about my mushroom but added them later part in the cooking. No need to add any water.
Covered the pot and cooked high for 4 hours, if auto cooking or low, need about 6 to 8 hours.
Do not try to open the lid so often as it might affect the cooking time. I cooked for four hours on high but as I was still busy with my housework, I switched to auto for another half an hour.
Some gravy formed in the pot, did not add any water at all. The chicken was so soft and tender that the wings and drumstick fall apart as I was scooping from the pot to the serving bowl. I did some cosmetics and placed all the falling parts and make it presentable hahaha. Was so good and the chicken tasted so soft.

Electric Lunch Box
Just had a minor surgery, was so glad someone gave us this electric lunch box. Solve my problem of having some home cooked food when family members are not around to help me buy or prepare my meal.
Before cooking, steamed fish with spring onion and ginger and some light soya sauce
Before cooking, beat one egg with one and half shell of water.
It took so long to cook about 45 minutes, by adding hot water in the base of the box instead of room temperature water will quicken the cooking time as I read in some reviews. Will try the next time with hot water.
My final product, no messy kitchen.
