Hiya! Today we will discuss about Spicy satay wings with peanut sauce

Ingredients

Ingredients
1.6kg whole chicken wings
sweet chilli sauce
1 cucumber, deseeded and cut into sticks, to serve
1 tbsp vegetable oil
1 tbsp light soy sauce
2 heaped tsp turmeric
2 heaped tsp ground cumin
4 garlic cloves, crushed
2 tbsp coconut cream
3 tbsp golden caster sugar
1 tbsp sunflower oil
3 garlic cloves, crushed
knob of ginger, finely grated
1 lemongrass stalk, bruised
1 Thai chilli, pricked all over with the tip of a knife (see tip, top left)
1 tsp ground cumin
4 tbsp crunchy peanut butter
1 tbsp golden caster sugar
2 tbsp coconut cream
100ml chicken stock (see ‘Tip’)
Tip
Make a stock

Use the chicken wing tips to make a good stock. Put them in a medium pan, cover with water, add a few slices of onion (skin on) and a couple of peppercorns. Simmer for 30 mins, then strain the stock into a jug and use in the satay sauce. 

Tame the heat

Pricking the chilli instead of chopping it lets just enough flavour out, adding a tingling but not overly fiery note to the sauce.

Direction

Using a sharp knife or kitchen shears, snip the wing tips from the wings at the first knuckle. Discard the tips or use to make stock (see above left). Cut the remaining wing through the joint. Put the wings in a large non-metallic bowl or a food bag. Mix together the marinade ingredients and pour over the wings, toss well to coat, then chill for at least 4 hrs or overnight. For the sauce, heat the oil in a pan, then add the garlic, ginger, lemongrass and chilli, and fry for 30 secs until aromatic. Stir in the cumin, toast for a few secs, then stir in the remaining ingredients. Simmer just long enough to make a slightly thickened sauce. Spoon into a bowl, cover and leave to cool. Can be made up to 3 days ahead and chilled. Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Spread the wings over a large baking tray, sprinkle with a little salt and roast for 40-45 mins, turning halfway, until crisped and golden. If a large amount of juice has collected in the tray at the halfway point, pour it away before continuing to roast. Just before serving, warm the peanut sauce gently and remove the lemongrass and chilli. Serve with the wings, sweet chilli sauce and cucumber sticks.

Heat the oil in a large casserole dish with a lid. Add the onion and bacon, and cook over a medium heat for 15 mins, until the onion is really soft and starting to brown, and the bacon is crisp. Push to the side of the pan, increase the heat and add the chicken pieces. Cook for a few mins until the meat is nicely browned, but don’t worry if it’s not evenly coloured. Add the paprika, tomatoes, along with half a can (200ml) water, the barbecue sauce, herbs, a pinch of salt and a generous amount of black pepper. Cover with a lid, lower the heat to a gentle simmer and cook for 45 mins, stirring occasionally. Check that the chicken is tender – if not, cover again and cook for 15 mins more. Add the beans and simmer, uncovered, for 20 mins until the sauce is thickened. Serve in bowls topped with grated cheddar and tortilla chips, if you like.

Poached eggs with broccoli, tomatoes & wholemeal flatbread

Boil the kettle. Heat oven to 120C/100C fan/gas 1/2 and put an ovenproof plate inside to warm up. Fill a wide-based saucepan one-third full of water from the kettle and bring to the boil. Add the broccoli and cook for 2 mins. Add the tomatoes, return to the boil and cook for 30 secs. Lift out with tongs or a slotted spoon and place on the warm plate in the oven while you poach the eggs.

Return the water to a gentle simmer. Break the eggs into the pan, one at a time, and cook for 2 1/2 – 3 mins or until the whites are set and the yolks are runny.

Divide the flatbreads between the two plates and top with the broccoli and tomatoes. Use a slotted spoon to drain the eggs, then place on top. Sprinkle with the seeds and drizzle with the oil. Season with a little black pepper and the chilli flakes, and serve immediately.
