Instructions
- In a wide pan over medium heat, add rice flour. Cook, stirring regularly, for about 3 to 5 minutes or until lightly golden. Remove from pan and set aside.
- In a pot over medium heat, heat oil. Add onions and garlic and cook until softened.
- Add chicken and cook, stirring regularly, until lightly browned.
- Add fish sauce and cook for another 1 to 2 minutes.
- In a bowl, combine water and annatto powder. Stir until well-dispersed and add to pan.
- Bring to a boil, skimming scum that may float on top. Lower heat, cover, and simmer until chicken is tender.
- Add eggplant and long beans and cook until tender yet crisp.
- Add peanut butter and stir until well blended.
- In a bowl, combine rice flour and one cup of broth from the pot. Stir until very smooth and without lumps.
- Slowly add to the pot, whisking to prevent lumps. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Continue to simmer until sauce is slightly thickened.
- Add pechay and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes or until tender yet crisp.
- Serve hot with sauteed shrimp paste on the side.
Notes
- To keep from overcooking the vegetables, steam them first and then add to the stew in the last few minutes.
- Cook the peanut sauce a little thinner than you like as it will continue to thicken as it sits.
