salt chicken Letter L, leaf

Leaf wrap salt chicken


Grandpa once told us in China, people didn’t have an oven. He made a salt chicken. He heated a heap of coarse salt and buried the chicken in it. It smelt aromatic but Dad complained it was too salty. Third Aunty Siew Ing made a salt chicken for me forty years later. I remembered Grandpa. It was Aunty’s secret recipe to make it less salty, wrap the chicken with the leaves of the vegetables.
