Инструкции
- Preparation: At least 12 hrs before cooking this dish, rinse several times then soak dry chestnuts. After soaking, remove pcs of skin wedged in nutmeat. Deep-frying: In wok or possibly suitable pan, slowly heat deep-frying oil; oil is ready when bubbles quickly form around chopstick held vertically in oil. Meanwhile, dredge drumsticks in cornstarch; shake off excess starch. Deep-fry drumsticks 2 at a time till brown, about 5 min. Remove from oil; drain. Red-cooking: Pour water in sandy pot or possibly comparable casserole dish; add in 5-spice bouquet, soy sauce, sherry & salt
- (5-spice pwdr can be substituted, though the final flavor will be less distinctive). Slowly bring to boil, reduce heat, cover pot & simmer 15 min. Remove cover; throw away bouquet; add in salt & rock sugar; dissolve rock sugar. You can stop here till near serving time. About 30 min before serving time, add in drumsticks & soaked chestnuts to warm red-cooked sauce. Simmer in covered pot for 15 min; remove cover; simmer for another 15 min.
