Recipe(tried): soy sauce chicken

with a microwave oven left and 2 cooking pans, i don't have much choice of cooking. thus, i cooked rice in a tiny pot on the stove and another was used in the following dish. steamed some greens in the microwave! i have done more packing today than i had expected! gosh, i can't believe how many unnecessary stuff we have here!
time's ticking!
==================================================Soy Sauce Chicken


1 bowl of dark soy sauce
2/3 bowl of sugar (variable)
3 bowls of water (variable)
6 chicken drumsticks (no need to marinate if got no time)
baby carrots (one handful)
2 medium-sized potatoes (cut into bite-size chunks)
2 large onions (sliced)
3 slices of ginger
5 pieces of smashed garlic
A sprig of spring (green) onion (break into 4 parts)

Chopped green onion and red chilli as garnish

A dash of pepper and salt

Put the soy sauce, water, ginger, garlic, and spring onions in the pot and bring to a boil.

Add in the sugar and taste the resulting gravy, it should be on the sweet side.

Add in the pieces of chicken and the carrots.

When the chicken is just about cooked, put in the potatoes and the onions.

When the chicken is cooked (fork can easily be inserted into the meat), the dish is ready to be served.

Garnish with chopped green onion and red chilli.

Author's Note: The sauce can be kept and used later to cook with same or other ingredients eg Tofu.
=================================================
