燴饭 (Brocolli chicken in silky egg on rice)

This is quite a versatile dish and can be served with rice, flat noodles, or deep fried vermicelli (my favorite!). If it is served on noodles, it is called 滑蛋河, or Cantonese noodles.

Summary of recipe for two:
1. Marinate 1 chicken breast (sliced) with a swirl each of soy, oyster sauce, shaoxing wine, few dashes of pepper and corn flour.

Optional: marinate 8 shrimps with dash of salt and pepper.

2. In a wok,
- brown the chicken in hot oil and remove from wok when almost cooked
- stirfry half a garlic (chopped) in existing oil in wok
- add half a broccoli (cut to bite size)
- season with a swirl each of oyster sauce, soy, shaoxing wine
- add 2 cups of chicken stock
- add shrimps and/or sliced fish cake (optional)
- add browned chicken
- add corn flour mixture (mix half tsp corn flour with 1 Tbsp of water) to thicken
- beat 2 eggs and slowly swirl into the wok, stirring it slowly.

3. Serve on jasmine rice with chopped chili in soy on the side.
