Stewed chicken with lotus seeds

Hi everybody. How do you do? This morning I feel very excited because yesterday my whole family received a message from the Ministry of Health about the booster dose of AstraZeneca vaccine 2. So I got up very early to go to the market to buy fresh ingredients. I want to cook a nutritious dish to get my energy back because I know that after the vaccination there will be some side effects and I experienced that after my first injection.

Tips to get good chicken: chickens that are white, black or bruised should not be selected. Chickens that are light yellow in color all over the body but dark yellow on the wings and back are good chickens. When pressed, there will be elasticity. If the meat is mushy, the chicken must have been given weight gainer.
Food preparation

• Wash the chicken and cut it into bite-sized pieces then add seasoning so that the chicken is absorbed: seasoning, monosodium glutamate, sugar, oyster sauce, fish sauce.
• wash lotus seeds
• Shiitake mushrooms cut the stem and then wash it

Note: so that shiitake mushrooms do not have a bad smell, we should boil them for 5 minutes and put in a little salt and ginger. Then take it out and wash it.

• Smash lemongrass and hot chilli pepper.
• Thinly sliced shallot.
  Cooking
• Put the oil in the pan, wait until the oil is hot, then add the onions until the onions turn brown and fragrant, then turn off the heat.

• We cook this in the slow cooker. Put all the ingredients in the pot including the oil just now and add 1/2 litre of water. Stew for about 2 hours if you put it on high mode, 4 hours on slow mode.

It is really easy to cook, isn't it? Of course, it's also not a luxury food or hard to find so don't forget to add chicken to your menu. I'm here if you have any question. I wish you success in making this dish. 😊
