Category: Poultry

 Ingredients List

  • 600 g Winter melon
  • 12 Chinese ham slices (0.5 cm
  • -thick)
  • 2 Young pigeons (approx 500 g
  • -each or a 1-kg chicken)
  • 4 Ginger root slices
  • 4 Shallots (white parts)
  • Cooking oil

 Directions

MARINADE
1/2 c Light soy sauce
1/8 c Dark soy sauce

STEWING SEASONING
1 ts Oyster sauce
1 1/2 ts Salt
1/4 ts Sugar
4 c Stock

SAUCE
1 c Stock
1 1/2 tb Cornstarch (mixed well with
-2 tbs water)

GARNISH (OPTIONAL
10 Sprigs of flowering chives

I used Cornish Game Hens, but you could also use a cut up chicken. If
you can't get winter melon, watermelon will work. Winter melon is
white, very mild tasting and a tad denser than watermelon. I think
you could get away using something like Honeydew too. Have fun!
