I tried out this dish as I believe my children would love it very much due to the gravy, and they love potato and carrots too. Used russet potato..seemed to take quite long to soften, but once it did, it became quite mushy. I sliced cross-sectionally into 0.6mm thick circles, and because the potatoes took long to soften, the gravy taste didn't penetrate the center, so in the pot, I divided the potatoes into smaller pieces. Next time, I'll cut into 1.5cm cubes, so that the gravy flavour can go around all sides of the potato cubes, and hopefully it's easier to stir fry.
I used 1/2 chicken, minus a few fillets and replaced with 3 additional chicken wings. Brandon liked both the wing, drumlet and chicken chunks, but Darren didn't really like the chicken, maybe coz he had chicken overdose as he had that at least 2x in school, and on that day itself.
However, they loved the gravy a lot.
I used 300ml water, those most recipe call for 150-200ml. I used so much, because initially the water couldn't cover all the ingredients. I'm still not sure if it must, but anyway just to note, as the ingredients start to cook, they'll shrink, and the water will tend to cover.
With the 300ml water, instead of 200ml in Papa Cheong's recipe, i used the same amt of seasoning, and the saltiness was already quite there, so if i reduce the water, I should also reduce the amt of seasoning.
I adapted from Papa Cheong and Food4tots recipe.
