Today, my recipe is a simple 'Ayam Masak Halia'. This is a five minutes dish but it wonderful ginger taste will never let me down. I don't like to serve pre heated food for my hubby and thats isn't his preference too. Also, I need a quick and easy to prepare meal due to rapid change in current situation and environment (fast moving) in Malaysia. Even for a housewife, the demand is so high,my time is so limited (cooking, cleaning, kids school and blogging) and I don't want to spend too much time just in my kitchen. So, I constantly search and look for simple and easy recipes that can be prepared instantly but yet still nice and tasty.

The main ingredient in 'Ayam Masak Halia' is ginger. Ginger is commonly used in most of Asian cooking. It gives a wonderful taste and aromatic flavour to your cooking. These are among recipes with huge consumption of ginger as that I've shared before in our blog, Steamed Sea Bass, Dried Mushroom Porridge, Siakap Stim Limau and Spicy Roasted Chicken.
