I have yet to find any link of this dish to Singapore. I did not taste it for the first time in Singapore but in my homeland Pakistan. Singaporean rice is one of the tastiest dishes that are served in our weddings.
It is the combination of noodles, rice, chicken, vegetables and mayo sauce. I usually skip making noodles when I am lazy or tired. It still tastes great with plain rice and mayo sauce.
There are 4 main steps of preparing this recipe.
Firstly boil the noodles with oil and keep aside.
Secondly, boil rice and keep separately . I use Basmati rice, you can use whatever rice you normally eat.
Thirdly, make the mayo sauce by combining mayonnaise, red chili flakes, ketchup and salt.
Lastly, prepare your chicken and vegetable sauce.
Chicken and vegetable sauce:
Cut all the vegetables.
In a wok, add oil and saute onions on medium heat till they turn transparent. Add chicken, garlic, ginger, chicken stock cube, Worcestershire sauce, cumin powder, red chili flakes, ketchup and salt.
Toss in your vegetables. Add soya sauce. Pour half glass of water and close the lid. Let the vegetables cook.
After 10 minutes, add another half glass of water with cornflour. The sauce will thicken. Layer your boiled rice in a dish followed by noodles and the chicken and vegetable sauce. Top it with the mayo sauce. Enjoy!
