做法
- 在研钵中把红葱头、大蒜和姜捣成粗酱——土生华人厨师偏好捣酱的质感而非搅打。
- 在重锅中以中火加热油。把捣好的酱炒6分钟至深金色、厨房弥漫焦化红葱香。
- 加tau cheong;炒90秒。酱会加深,油变红棕色。加棕榈糖;搅拌至融入酱中,创造油亮漆面。
- 加鸡块;翻拌使其裹上。煎4分钟至轻微上色。加肉桂、八角、kicap manis、老抽和生抽。
- 倒入鸡高汤或蘑菇泡发水。加泡发的香菇。煮至微沸,盖盖煮30分钟,中途翻一次鸡。
- 加土豆。开盖再炖25到30分钟——土豆应易戳穿,酱汁收成挂勺厚度。如太多油浮上撇掉。撒亚洲芹菜叶。12小时静置后最佳;轻轻加热。

文化背景
土生华人(娘惹)菜系源自15-17世纪马六甲和槟城中国男商人与本地马来女性的婚姻——一种混合文化,有自己的语言(峇峇马来语)、服饰和食物。Ayam pongteh是娘惹日常菜——福建-马来融合,tau cheong(中国发酵黄豆)和棕榈糖(马来)创造签名甜咸深度。这道菜以重新加热著称;许多娘惹家庭提前一天做。'pongteh'据说来自福建话'烤',指红葱酱的深炒。
