Honey chicken - a chinese recipe

Because beauty_forashes asked for it. Apologies to all who don't speak German, but I really don't have the vocabulary (and the energy) to translate the recipe into English.

Honig-Huhn
Vorbereitungszeit: 10 Min.
Zubereitungszeit: 10 Min.
Für 4-6 Personen

Zutaten:
500 g Hühnerbrustfilet ohne Haut
180 g Stärkemehl
1/2 Tl Backpulver
2 Eiweiß
kaltes Wasser
etwas Stärkemehl zum Bestäuben
180 ml klarer Honig
1 1/2 Tl süße Chilisauce
Frühlingszwiebeln zum Garnieren

Methode:
1. Huhn in mundgerechte Stücke schneiden.
2. Aus Stärkemehl, Backpulver, geschlagenem Eiweiß und kaltem Wasser einen cremigen Teig bereiten. Hühnerstücke mit Stärkemehl bestäuben und anschließend in den Teig tauchen. 1 Min. braten, bis die Oberfläche knusprig und das Huhn gar ist.
3. In einer anderen Pfanne den Honig schmelzen und mit Chilisauce mischen. Über das Huhn geben und sofort servieren. Mit Frühlingszwiebeln garnieren.

Tipp:
Das Fleisch auf einem Bett aus knusprig gebratenen Reisnudeln anrichten. Reisnudeln in heißes Öl geben, gerade so lange braten bis sie aufgehen und weiß werden, dann herausnehmen.

The shepherds are done!

We had laundry day, as usual on Saturdays - and a very hot one at that. Apparently, temperatures peaked at 36°C in the capital (where I live), but in some cities down south went as high as 39°C. Fortunately, around 7pm strong winds came up, with a tiny bit of rain, so we can breathe again. Yay!

I was quite crafty today, too. Not only did I the heroic effort of sewing on the spine of the quiet book, I also finished the shepherds. Take a look:



The sheep aren't all of the same fabric because I mostly use scraps left over from the various quiet books for this project (with the exception of the back panels), but I don't think that would be a problem. They won't go to the same owner anyway.

Mum decided that cooking in this heat would be the needful thing to do, so she made Frikadellen (which, I think is the equivalent of meat balls, but I'm not sure) and mashed potatoes. Sometimes I wonder what stuff the woman is made of. Beyond 90, with only one fully functional limb, and she cooks in sweltering heat. Lunch was very yummy, though... and she isn't any worse for the wear than on other days. And I thought Grandma was the tough one!

This also means that tomorrow we'll only have to do minimal cooking, since we'll have leftovers. Perhaps a Tütensuppe of the fruity variation will be in order; those don't even need any cooking, one just stirs the powder into cold milk and puts the finished product into the fridge to chill.
