In Hong Kong there is a small circle of venerable grey beards that are respected by all as the authorities on traditional Chinese food. They eat and then they talk about what they eat. What a great job, eh?! My 老公 likes to check out what they have to say and decided the other day to try out a recipe by one of these famous Chinese food connoisseurs, a William Mark Yiu Tong, known in Chinese as 唯靈.
This sophisticated food lover created this easy recipe for his daughter before she went off to university as both a way for his daughter to be reminded of her father and as a way for her to make new friends in a new place. Because, as the old man stated so eloquently: memories of eating good food together is the glue that binds friends and family. Very true, no?
So we made his very easy to prepare recipe and we were bowled over with pure deliciousness! Seriously amazing! These old guys really know what they are about! We ended up eating (licking!) all of this savoury, perfectly balanced sweet and sour tender chicken dish all up just like that (and neglected the other dishes on the table!)
This simple to prepare Three Bowls Four Flavors Chicken, or 三杯四味雞 is really out of this world!
