If you can't find the chekur ginger root substitute it for regular ginger instead. The nutmeg is optional, but it gives added fragrance.
"A sinful treat easy to make at home."
Ingredients
2 Tbs oil for sautéing
Spice Paste:
2 Tbs coriander seeds
5g chekur ginger root
1 tsp white peppercorns
15 shallots
3-5 cloves garlic
1 tsp tau cheo (preserved soy bean)
½ tsp nutmeg
Filling:
6-10 garlic, minced
500g onions, diced
500g minced chicken
Seasonings:
2 Tbs sugar
1 tsp salt
1 big sandwich loaf, unsliced
2-4 eggs, lightly beaten
250ml oil for deep frying
Method
Heat 2 Tbs oil in a wok over medium flame to sauté the spice paste.
Stir in the minced garlic and diced onion, and fry to mix well. Add in the minced meat and stir fry until cooked.
Season to taste with sugar and salt. Slice the bread 5cm thick. Slice off the crust and make a slit in the bread to form a pocket.
Stuff the cooked filling into the slit and seal with some of the beaten egg.
Dip sandwich in beaten egg before deep-frying in medium hot oil until golden and crispy.
Drain on paper towels. To serve slice diagonally and enjoy.
