Cantonese Steamed Chicken



My most fav steamed chicken. Can serve together with Nasi Ayam.

Ingredients:
750 g chicken pieces on the bone
1 tbsp light soy sauce
1 tsp fresh ginger juice*
2 tsp cornflour (cornstarch)
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp sugar
1/2 tsp oriental sesame oil

* To obtain ginger juice, press grated fresh ginger in a small strainer and discard solids left in strainer.

To cook:
Put chicken on a heatproof plate, add all the other ingredients and mix well.
Put the plate in a steamer over boiling water. Cover and steam on high heat for 15 minutes, or until it's done.
Vegetables may be steamed at the same time as an accompaniment.
