Traditional Hainanese Chinese New Year Cuisine 傳統海南新年佳肴

Chinese New Year is just round the corner, My Kitchen Restaurant would like to take this opportunity to introduce to you her Traditional Chinese New Year Hainanese Cuisine that commence from 6th Jan 08 - 29th Feb 08.
在這新年的來臨, 由一月六日至二月廿六日, 父之廚餐館呈現給大家傳統海南新年佳肴.

In today's modern society, many may not know those special custom dishes for this joyous festive celebration, and thus, we hope not just bring you good food, but a little of our (Hainanese) Chinese New custom dishes.
在這時尚的都市里, 你可能對籍貫的新年佳肴一无所知, 父之廚就在此不但要你吃個飽, 也希望你能對傳統海南新年佳肴有一點點認識!


First and most common is our Hainanese Chicken Rice Ball! Though it is everywhere, the rice ball simply means family unity. While the chicken is one of the famous dish in Hainan Island due to its natural soil and give a very tender bite of chicken. That is the reason why it get famous! During this festive season, customers got a choice to choose either Normal Chicken with Soya Sauce or Steam Village Chicken with Rice Wine (orginal way of cooking). 馳名海南雞粒飯(飯團) - 獲得光明20大海南雞飯王, 雖然很普遍, 但很有意思. 飯團飯團, 吃了一家團團圓圓! 古老式的米酒蒸菜園雞, 才可真令你大開胃口!


In fact, we eat more meat compare to vege during this festive season. But Hainanese Brinjal is one of the must eat vege. My grandpa always forced us take at least one, caused the believe is, eating brinjal will bring you a better year ahead, and years after! 事实上, 海南人都以肉類為主, 但在這新年期間, 海南茄子是道必吃菜. 因為它將帶給我們更好的一年!


As mention earlier, we eat more meat. This also what you will find in most dishes in my restaurant that specially for this festive season. 就如所說, 肉類為主!


1st - Hainanese Curry Lamb Shank. Originally it supposed to be Hainanese Curry Mutton, as my place is also famous with her Hainanese Mutton Soup (see below), so I gave it a twist by using Lamb Shank. This is really a worth trying dish! 海南咖哩羊腿是道改良的新年佳肴, 而是道值得一試的美食. 除此之外, 海南燉羊湯也是本店主菜之一.


2nd - Hainanese Braised Duck. Duck is famous in one of the town in Hainan Island called "Kai-Chek", with dish name "Kai-Chek Ak". Unlike other braised duck that you find elsewhere, this came with 5 spices too. Emm.... it is simply yummy!! I personaly like it very much! 加積鴨是道海南加積市的著名美食. 在父之廚, 我們稱為海南五香鹵鴨. 將起味和五香料聯合, 在鹵上個1小時半, emm.... 好吃好吃 :)

3rd - Hainanese Pork Trotter. Pure Hainanese may love it, for the rest, I am not sure as it came with the fat and bones that needed you to really bite. And, it give you more towards 5 spices taste. Again, provided you do like 5 spices taste! 如你喜歡在ハ角及貴皮味中享用肥肉, 我想你可喜歡這道海南豬蹄啦!

4th - Hainanese Pineapple Chicken Offals! This is a very traditional dish among Hainanese, and I think it almost lost among the younger generation, especially many do not cook! It uses garlic, soya sauce, oyster sauce and cooking wine to made up, and you will find it a bit salty and sweet with garlice fragrant smell. Let's take a look! 這是道非常古老的海南佳肴, 幾乎每戶海南人都會煮, 它就是海南黃梨雞雜. 煮法簡單及濆香!


5th - Hainanese Mutton Soup. You can have this everyday in my shop, however, it is also one of the Chinese New Year dish. It carry no mutton smell, as over 20 types of chinese hers are used to cover it up!! It is one of the best seller and signature in my shop. What would you think? 雖然海南燉羊湯是道本店主打菜, 它也是新年佳肴之一. 不但沒羊騷味, 而也是補身的補品, 由起對寒身低的人們!




Last but not least, My Kitchen Restaurant wishing all of you Happy Chinese New Year and having a joyous year ahead! 在此, 父之廚恭祝大家新年怏樂!
