• In a small bowl, whisk together stock, ginger, garlic, curry powder, chutney, 3/4 teaspoon salt, red pepper, and cornstarch. Pour over chicken-vegetable mixture, and toss to combine.
• Meanwhile, bring 1/2 cup water and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt to a boil in a small saucepan. Stir in couscous, and remove from heat. Cover and let stand for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork, cover again, and set aside until ready to serve.
• Fold two 24-inch lengths of aluminum foil in half crosswise, and unfold. Place half the chicken-vegetable mixture on one of the pieces of foil, 2 to 3 inches from the fold. Refold along the crease, enclosing mixture, and make a double 1/2-inch fold along the 3 open sides. Repeat process to make the second packet. Place both packets on a baking sheet, and bake for 18 minutes. Divide couscous between two bowls. Open packets, arrange contents over couscous, and serve immediately.

VEGETABLES STEAMED IN CHICKEN STOCK

Steps:

• Place 3/4 cup of the glaze in the bottom of a large, wide pot over medium heat. Add the vegetables and bring the liquid to a boil. Reduce heat so liquid slowly simmers. Cover and cook until vegetables are tender, about 25 minutes, adding water if necessary to keep liquid in the bottom of the pot at all times.
• Preheat broiler. Transfer the vegetables to a 9-inch pie plate. Spoon the remaining glaze over the top and season with the salt and pepper to taste. Place under the broiler until the top is lightly browned. Divide the vegetables among 4 plates and serve immediately.

• Cut the pak choi into 12 cm lengths and halve the mushrooms. Toss together and place in the second layer of the bamboo steamer. Scatter the bean sprouts and salad onions over the top.
• Lift the steamer containing the chicken off the top of the pan and sit the vegetable tier underneath - it is crucial that the vegetables sit beneath the chicken otherwise the juices that they release will fall into the bowl holding the chicken and dilute the soy dressing.
• Return the bamboo stack to the pan and continue to steam for a further 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still crispand the chicken is cooked through.
• Serve the bamboo steamer stack at the table with some boiled rice, and allow guests to help themselves.

KOREAN STEAMED CHICKEN WITH VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Bring the water to boil in a steamer, cover and reduce the heat to a simmer. Place the whole chicken on a rack and let it cook for 1 to 1 1/2 hours. When the chicken is cooked, remove it from the steamer and cool. Increase the heat to high and boil the stock in the base until you have reduced it to about 2 cups, about 15 minutes.
• When the chicken is cool, peel the meat off all the bones (discarding any fat and cartilage) and cut the flesh into bite-size pieces.
• Pour the liquid from the steamer into a large saucepan and set it over medium heat. Add the onion, carrot, bamboo shoots, ginger, Cayenne and mushrooms. Cover, let the mixture come to a boil, reduce heat to low and simmer about 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, set a small frying pan over medium heat and coat the surface with half the oil. Just before the oil begins to smoke gently add the egg whites, beaten, rotating the pan until they spread into an even layer. Turn only once when the albumin has just set. Repeat the process with the beaten egg yolks and turn both omlettes onto paper towels to drain. When the omelettes are cool, slice them into diamond shapes, about 1 1/2 inches to a side.
• Add the scallions and chicken to the simmering liquid in the saucepan. Season with the soy sauce and add the walnuts. Leave the saucepan uncovered and adjust the heat to continue simmering all ingredients. Let the mixture cook for about 2 minutes; then transfer the contents to a heated bowl or tureen. Scatter the egg diamonds and pine nuts over the top and serve at once.

*STEAMED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Chicken can be steamed whole, disjointed or chopped in 2-inch sections. It can also be boned first, then cubed or slivered. (Boned chicken needs the shortest cooking time.) Both spring and boiling chickens can be used. A spring chicken, steamed whole, calls for only 1 cup of stock or water. A boiling fowl requires much more, and is usually served in a large bowl with its own soup. Cooking time depends on the tenderness of the chicken. The bird is done when the meat comes off the bones easily.The Thousand Recipe Chinese Cookbook. ©1994 by Gloria Bley Miller.
