SIMPLE & DELICIOUS CHICKEN WINGS

These chicken wings are surprisingly delicious, considering that it only involves 4 ingredients. At first I was kinda worried if they would turn out too 'mustardy' but they were tasty, not 'mustardy' at all! And when hubby opened the door, he said, "Wow, something smells GOOOOD!" :D
It's simple, quick and GOOD!

Gonna try it on ribs next time :)

Ingredients:

(Adapted from a recipe online)
  • Approx 400g chicken wings
  • 1 tbsp light soya sauce
  • 3 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • Roasted sesame seeds, for garnishing (Optional)


  1. Mix light soya sauce, Dijon mustard and brown sugar together in a bowl. Place wings in a resealable bag. Pour marinade over wings and coat them well. Seal and marinade wings for at least 2 hours.
  2. Preheat oven to 180°C and line a baking tray with baking paper.
  3. Remove wings from resealable bag and transfer them to the prepared tray. Save marinade liquid for basting.
  4. Bake in the preheated oven for about 30 mins. Baste wings with the leftover marinade liquid. Continue to bake, basting every 10 mins, til the wings are fully cooked (About 20 more mins). Garnish with some roasted sesame seeds and serve.

    Hi Cheryl. What is the reason to do basting for this recipe and would there be any difference in flavour if lets say I bake at 200 degrees for 20 minutes and then turn the chicken wings to other side and bake for another 10 minutes at 180 degrees? I have been baking using that method when it comes to chicken drumsticks where my recipe is honey, miso paste, paprika powder & black pepper which I marinade the chicken pieces overnight in the fridge.

    Hello Victoria, I find the meat is more juicy with the basting. I don't think it affects the flavor but it gets burnt faster due to the brown sugar, so I used a lower temperature...

YACON SOUP WITH CORN AND CARROT

Was shopping at the usual supermarket recently when I saw a lady promoting something which, from far, looked like sweet potatoes to me. I didn't pay attention to her til she called out to me and handed me a piece to sample. She was promoting organic yacons, not sweet potato. The moment I put it into my mouth, I remembered eating this looong time ago, but because I seldom see it in the supermarkets, I had totally forgotten about such a thing.  The yacon is a traditionally grown for its crisp, sweet-tasting, tuberous roots. Though the root looks like a   sweet potato, the taste and texture are completely different. Its crispy texture, juiciness and mildly sweet taste makes it somewhat similar to water chestnut or snow pear. It can be eaten raw or cook. It is said that yacon  is very high in fiber and low in calories which makes it a healthy and nutritious snack.   Some of the health benefits of yacon include its ability to regulate blood sugar ...

CHINESE ARROWROOT SOUP WITH PORK BONES

This is the simple version of the Chinese arrowroot soup (Also known as 粉葛湯 'Fun Kot Tong' in Cantonese). Our family love drinking this soup. It is tasty and cooking it with pork bones and dried squid makes it sweet and refreshing. Some people who like boiling arrowroot together with lotus roots or peanuts, and my mother-in-law usually boils it on its own and drink as 'cooling' tea. Naturally sweet and tasty. If you don't like seafood, you can choose to omit the dried squid. This is how the Chinese arrowroot looks like.  The arrowroot is a type of root plant similar to taro, potato or tapioca. However, it is harder in texture and incredibly starchy. When it is cut up, it has patterns that looks like the ages of a tree trunk. It is usually made into powder and used as thicken agent in cooking. The arrowroot is high in protein and fiber which is very beneficial to our body. Ingredients: 1 medium-sized Chinese arrowroot (Approx 700g) 10 red dates, ...
