This is basically the same sauce from this cauliflower recipe. It was so good that I just had to have more of it. The stir-fry is greatly improvised from what we had around the fridge. I think some spring onion would be awesome here, but unfortunately we didn’t have any. Just the same, the recipe turned out delicious.

INGREDIENTS:

(Yields 4 servings / 1.31 EUR per serving / 5.23 EUR for all)

For the peanut sauce:

2 tbsp soy sauce (0.27 EUR)

2 tbsp warm water (–)

1 tbsp peanut butter (0.13 EUR)

1 tbsp sugar (0.01 EUR)

½ tsp corn starch (0.01 EUR)

1 tsp toasted sesame oil (0.13 EUR)

½ tsp salt (0.01 EUR)

½ tsp red pepper flakes (0.03 EUR)

For the stir-fry:

3 tbsp sunflower seed oil (0.04 EUR)

2 cups minced chicken (2.00 EUR)

2 tbsp soy sauce (0.27 EUR)

Good pinch of salt (0.01 EUR)

Good pinch of freshly ground black pepper (0.02 EUR)

3 medium oyster mushroom clusters – around 250 grams in total (1.00 EUR)

2 carrots (0.20 EUR)

3 red horn peppers (1.00 EUR)

1 large onion (0.10 EUR)

METHOD:

First prepare the peanut sauce by whisking all of the ingredients on low heat until peanut butter and corn starch are completely dissolved and then bring to a gentle simmer. Cook for a few minutes, while stirring constantly so the sauce thickens a bit. Keep the sauce warm while you prepare the rest.

Wash, peel and chop all the vegetables and mushrooms, while keeping the ingredients separated. Place a deep pan or a wok on high heat for a few minutes until thoroughly heated through. Add in sunflower seed oil, minced chicken, soy sauce, salt and black pepper. Stir well to incorporate and break the chicken in small chunks with a spatula. Stir-fry for a few minutes, until chicken is thoroughly cooked through. Then gradually add in chopped mushrooms, carrots, red peppers and onion in this exact order, taking the time to cook every ingredient for a few minutes before throwing in the new one. When all is done, pour in the peanut sauce on top and give a good stir. Serve immediately over a bed of cooked rice.

Umak u ovom jelu je u principu isti onaj iz recepta sa karfijolom jer mi je bio tako fini da sam jednostavno morala imati još. Kombinacija za wok je uvelike improvizirana od stvari koje smo imali doma po frižideru. Mislim da bi mladi luk super pasao u ovom jelu, ali mi ga na žalost nismo imali doma. Svejedno, jako sam zadovoljna sa time kako je ovaj recept na kraju ispao.

SASTOJCI:

(Za 4 porcije / 9,76 kn po porciji / 39,05 kn za sve)

Za umak od kikirikija:

2 žlice soja sosa (2,00 kn)

2 žlice tople vode (–)

1 žlica kikiriki maslaca (1,00 kn)

1 žlica šećera (0,05 kn)

½ žličice kukuruznog škroba (0,03 kn)

1 žličica tostiranog sezamovog ulja (1,00 kn)

½ žličice soli (0,01 kn)

½ žličice sušenog čilija u pahuljicama (0,25 kn)

Za wok:

3 žlice suncokretovog ulja (0,30 kn)

2 šalice mljevene piletine (15,00 kn)

2 žlice soja sosa (2,00 kn)

Dobar prstohvat soli (0,01 kn)

Dobar prstohvat svježe mljevenog crnog papra (0,15 kn)

3 osrednja ‘grozda’ bukovača – oko 250 g sve skupa (7,50 kn)

2 mrkve (1,50 kn)

3 crvene paprike roge (7,50 kn)

1 veliki luk (0,75 kn)

PRIPREMA:

Prvo priredite umak od kikirikija tako da na slaboj vatri miješate sve sastojke, sve dok se maslac od kikirikija i kukuruzni škrob do kraja ne rastope. Pustite da sve lagano zavrije, te kuhajte nekoliko minuta uz stalno miješanje, tako da se umak zgusne. Držite umak na toplom dok pripremite sve ostalo.

Operite, ogulite i nasjeckajte svo povrće i gljive, no sve sastojke držite razdvojene. Stavite duboku tavu ili wok na jaku vatru i pustite par minuta da se dobro ugrije. Ubacite u wok suncokretovo ulje, meso, soja sos, sol i papar. Dobro promiješajte te piletinu usitnite špatulom. Kuhajte nekoliko minuta, dok meso ne bude skroz gotovo. Sada jedno po jedno ovim redoslijedom dodajte nasjeckane gljive, mrkve, paprike i luk, s time da pustite par minuta prije nego ubacite idući sastojak kako bi se sve dobro skuhalo. Kada je sve gotovo, zalijte umakom od kikirikija i dobro promiješajte. Poslužite odmah preko kuhane riže.
