Cap Cay

Cap cay is an Indonesian mixed vegetable dish that is influenced by Chinese food. It is supposed to consist of more than 10 different kinds of vegetables because cap in Fujian dialect means 10, but for me it doesn’t matter how many kinds of vegetables. My motto is just throw anything that is available. 🙂

So for this cap cay I put broccoli, carrot, snow peas, green bean, sausage and chicken. For the chicken, I didn’t just fry it like that, but instead first I seasoned the chicken pieces with salt, pepper and garlic powder. Then I dipped the chicken pieces in beaten eggs, then onto some maizena, repeat the process one more time, deep fry it and voila crispy chicken. As for the cap cay spices I just simply used salt, pepper, crushed garlic, kecap manis, soy sauce and oyster sauce. Eat it warm with white rice . 😀
