A long time
ago when my father was sailing through the Indian Ocean single handed,
he encountered a spot of bother. A vicious
storm had crippled the boat and it was slowly sinking. With just a few
meagre rations he boarded the life raft and waved goodbye to his sinking
yacht. He drifted for four days before being picked up by a Chinese ship
heading for Shanghai.This recipe was given to him by the ships cook.
Pour a little oil into a wok and heat. Drop in chicken and stir-fry
until thoroughly cooked but tender. Add oyster sauce, mushroom
soya sauce,
garlic and stir.
Add the sauce recipe bits. Stir and simmer until sauce is golden. Add
the rest
of the vegetables and heat through. Serve over rice and noodles.
