Chicken Pie

Thursday, 26 August 2010



A resident's mum from Seremban, West Malaysia came regularly to stay at her place usually for about a-month period. Auntie Tai will join the morning Taiji group whenever she is here. She is a very good cook & bakes her own bread at home.

Heard that she & Auntie Lean were going to make Chicken Pie after morning exercise. I wanted to learn so I offered them my home. Both are very active & agile seniors in their 70s.

Tai went to buy the chicken from Fairprice & they came over at 10am. Tai is a fast worker & very skillful in weaving the cleaver. Whilst I was washing & dicing the chicken, she had cut the big onion & carrot.

First we marinated the chicken & stir-fried with onion & carrot. Setting the filling aside, we then prepared the dough for the pastry. Tai shown us the arts of moulding the pastry. We scooped in the filling  & covered all the tops. I egg-washed them before baking. Finally we distributed them to the other Taiji members too.

Gege loved the yummy Chicken Pie that he was asking for more the next day.
