The story (Skip to Recipe) I have good memories of this. It was a treat I would ask of my parents, when I was young and “western” food was regarded as special. I suppose, you have to be live in my country, or the region, to understand this : Hainanese...

Its not hard, and it takes just 4 ingredients. Master this recipe, and you will have folks eating out of your hand! I have a very definite idea of what Teriyaki chicken is – a delicious piece of skin-on chicken, grilled, with crispy skin and coated in a lovely...
