2 tsp grated fresh ginger

2 tsp minced garlic

3 tbsp light soy sauce

3 tbsp brown sugar

1 tsp sesame oil

1 tbsp rice vinegar

2 tbsp Gochujang

1. Cut the chicken into 1-1/2-inch cubes and toss in a bowl. Whisk together the remaining ingredients (except the chopped green onion) in another small bowl to make the marinade.
2. Mix half of the marinade into the chicken to thoroughly coat it. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
3. Cover the remaining sauce and place it in the fridge to bast the chicken later.

Putri Salat/Seri Muka

Ingredients:

3 cups glutinous rice

2 cups coconut milk

1/2 tsp salt

Custard

1 cup All-purpose flour

2 cups coconut milk

1-1/2 cups sugar

100ml pandan juice

1 tbsp cornstarch

1 egg

1/2 tsp salt

Directions:

1. Soak the rice for at least 4 hours or overnight in water.
2. Drain the water and place the sticky rice in a tray. Pour in the coconut milk and salt, stirring to mix. Place the tray of sticky rice mixture in a steamer and steam on high heat for about 25-30 minutes.
3. Brush the bottom and all sides of an 8x8-inch square tray with oil. Line the bottom of the pan with parchment paper. This will make it easier to remove the rice cake from the pan. Transfer the sticky rice to the tray, cover it with a piece of parchment paper, and use your palms to pack it down tightly to prevent it from falling apart when cut.
4. Add all the custard ingredients and blend them into the fine mixture to prepare the custard.  Add the cornstarch and mix again to thicken the batter.
5. Strain the custard mixture into a large saucepan.  Cook on low heat and stir until the mixture coats the back of the spoon for about 15-20 mins.  (Note:  If the custard happens to be lumpy, blend to smooth it)
6. Gently pour the custard mixture over the pressed rice cake using the ladle. Then, place two chopsticks on each side of the steamer pot.
7. Place the lid (wrapped with cloth) on top of the chopsticks to create some gap and allow some steam to escape so the surface can be smooth.
8. Steam on medium heat for 30-45 mins or until the top layer is no longer "jiggly." The custard may take longer to set because the crack on the lid opens during steaming.
9. Let it cool completely before cutting, about 4 hours or more. Loosen the edge with an oiled knife or plastic knife, then gently remove the rice cake from the pan and cut it to the desired size.

Cambodia Grilled Chicken

Ingredients:

1 whole chicken

Marinade

5 clove garlic

2 tbsp sugar

1 tsp salt

1 tbsp light soy sauce

2 tbsp fish sauce

Glaze

2 tbsp veg oil

1 clove garlic ~ minced

2 tsp annatto or sweet paprika

Dipping

1 tsp kosher salt

1 tsp ground black pepper

1/2 tsp sugar (optional)

2 lime

Directions/Instructions:

1. Remove and discard the fat just inside the neck and body cavities of the chicken.  Remove the package of giblets and set it aside for another use.  Rinse the chicken, inside and out, under cold running water, then drain and blot it dry, inside and out, with paper towels.  Spatchcock the chicken.  Make 2 deep slashes to the bone on both sides of the chicken breast and in each leg and tight.  Trim or fold the wings tips back behind the wings.  Place the chicken in a nonreactive baking dish large enough to hold it.
2. Place the garlic, sugar, and salt in a heavy mortar and pound into a pestle paste.  Work in the soy sauce and fish sauce.  Spoon the marinade over the chicken, forcing it into the slits and turning the chicken to coat it well on both sides.  Let the chicken marinate in the refrigerator and cover for 1-4 hours or overnight. 
3. Heat the oil in a small saucepan over medium heat for the glaze.  Add the crushed garlic clove and cook until it begins to brown for about 1 minute.  Using a slotted spoon, transfer the garlic to a small heat-proof bowl.  Add the annatto to the saucepan with the oil and cook until fragrant and browned and the oil turns orange for 2 mins.  If using paprika, cook it for only 15 seconds.  Strain the oil into the bowl with the garlic through a fine-mesh wire strainer.  Set the glaze aside.
4. Place 1/2 tsp each of salt and pepper and 1/4 tsp of sugar (if using) in 2 small attractive bowls for the dipping sauce.  Have the lime ready; add the lime juice at the last minute.
5. Set up the grill for direct grilling and preheat it to medium or oven at 200 degrees C.  Drain the chicken, discard the marinade, and arrange it on the hot grate or in an oiled grill basket (if using), skin side down.  Grill the chicken until golden brown and cooked through for 12-20 mins per side.  Move the chicken as needed to dodge any flare-ups.  Use an instant-read meat thermometer to test for doneness, inserting it into the thickest part of a thigh but not so that it touches a bone.  The internal temperature should be about 170 degrees F.  During the last 10 minutes of cooking, brush the chicken on both sides with the glaze.
6. Transfer the chicken, skin side up, to a platter to serve.  Let it rest for about 2 minutes, then cut it into pieces.  Add 2 tbsp of lime juice to each bowl with the salt, pepper, and sugar for the dipping sauce and stir it with a fork until the salt and sugar dissolve completely.  To eat, dip the pieces of chicken in the salted lime juice.

4. Stir occasionally for about 5 minutes or until the peppers begin to soften.  Then add the cooked potatoes.
5. Let the potatoes cook over medium-high heat until they form a crust at the bottom.  Stir a few times so it does not stick.  Use a potato masher or a heavy ladle to mash the potatoes slightly.
6. Season with salt and stir in the lemon juice.  Sprinkle the chopped cilantro and mix well.
7. Mix the ingredients in a bowl with enough water to make a runny batter to make the dosa.  (The batter should be far runnier than a pancake batter because you want to spread it reasonably thin.)
8. Heat a griddle over medium-high heat.  Using a round-bottom ladle, pour about half a cup of batter into the center of the griddle.  Quickly, spread outward in a circular motion with the bottom of the ladle.  Dosa is to be reasonably thin if you prefer it to be crispy.
9. Sprinkle or spray some oil around the edges.  Cook until the top is dry and the edges are browned; remove to a plate.
10. Place the stuffing/filling inside the dosa, fold it over, and serve with any chutney you prefer.  Enjoy!
