(Nonya Chicken Potato Stew)
I have heard so much about this Nonya dish
but have never tasted it
until Felicia Khaw shared it in Facebook
When I cooked it for dinner that night
To my surprise
my hubby said
"my mom used to cook this!"
I have to agree that it was very nice
Happy to share with you the recipe:

5 pips garlic, peeled & chopped

2) heat oil in wok, add shallots & garlice & fry until fragrant
3) add chicken pieces & potato, mix well
4) add taucheo, dark soya sauce & palm sugar, continue frying
5) add enough water to cover chicken, and bring to a boil
