Braised Chicken with Potatoes and Black Mushrooms/Ayam Tumis Kentang dan Jamur


This is easy dish yet yummy with a very little seasonings. It has thick sauce, a bit sweet in taste, makes a good company for warm rice. For the potatoes, they can be fried or not up to our like. I mostly did it without frying the potatoes to save a lot of work, and the dishes still taste great.

Ingredients :

1 chicken of 800 to 900 grams in weight, cut into small pieces
1 ripe tomato, cut into pieces
4 black mushrooms, soak and cut each into 8
3 potatoes, peel , cut into pieces, fried
1 stalk spring onion
Half tbsp chopped garlic
Half tbsp julienned ginger
Oil

Seasonings :
1/2 tsp pepper
Salt
to taste
1 tbsp light soy sauce
3 tbsp dark soy sauce
1 tbsp sugar
1 tbsp oyster sauce

Method :
Heat a little oil in a wok and saute the chopped garlic and julienned ginger until golden brown and fragrant. Put in black mushroom, spring onion and tomato, keep stirring. Add in the chicken and potatoes, stirr until half cooked. Pour in 2 cups of water and seasonings to taste. Cook until the chicken is tender and the sauce thicken. Dish up.
