  • Roast Lung Kong Chicken

    Recipe

    Title: ROAST LUNG KONG CHICKEN
    Categories: Chinese, Chicken
    Yield: 4 servings

    3 lb Chicken, cut in half
    Looing sauce:
    4 c Water
    1 c Light soy sauce
    1 c Dark soy sauce
    1 Star anise
    1/2 c Dry sherry
    5 tb Sugar
    4 sl Fresh ginger
    Additional
    6 c Peanut oil for deep frying

    Blanch the chicken halves in boiling water for 2
    minutes. Drain. Place the bird halves in a pot with
    the looing sauce ingredients and bring to a boil.
    They should be covered with the sauce. Turn the heat
    to a simmer and cook lightly for 15 minutes, then
    allow the halves to cool in the sauce. Remove and
    place on a rack on the counter. Pat dry with paper
    towels and dry the meat using an electric fan. Aim
    the fan at the bird halves for about 3 hours, or until
    the skin is dry to the touch. Deep fry one half at a
    time in oil at 350 degrees. Be very careful when
    sliding the half into the hot oil. A wok lid will be
    helpful in protecting your hands and face in case the
    oil should pop and spit at you. Deep fry each half
    until the skin is crispy and golden. Drain on paper
    towels before cutting up to serve. From The Frugal
    Gourmet Cooks Three Ancient Cuisines, Jeff Smith,

    1 whole leg of lamb — partially bones
    GROUP A
    2 ounces almonds
    8 ounces onion — chopped
    8 cloves garlic
    4 inch piece fresh ginger — in small pieces
    4 whole green chile — chopped
    3 tablespoons plain yogurt of of 1 pint

    2 tablespoons cumin — ground

    In a food processor or blender mix
    GROUP A

    In a bowl stir the pint of yogurt (minus the 3 tablespoons) until creamy and
    smooth. Then add the Group A paste and

    Add GROUP B

    Now, put this mixture over, around, and in the leg of lamb. Use a glass pan
    and cover with plastic film. Refridgerate for 24 hours. Glass is used to avoid
    the possible chemical changes in the yogurt. 24 Hours later: Heat 6
    tablespoons of vegetable oil in pan and add (when hot but not smoking) GROUP C
    A few seconds in hot oil and you pour the spices and hot oil over the lamb.
    Cover it all with foil and bake at 400F for 1 1/2 hours then uncover for 45
    minutes.

    Decorate with whole almonds and golden raisins. Then give it a final 5 minutes
    to finish in the oven.

    I did a flower with the almonds as petals and raisins for the center. Then
    arranged two rows of each down the sides.
