Chicken in Coconut's Gravy๐
Hellow Steemit Fellows๐
Being born and brought up in Aceh, Chicken Head is something unfamiliar for us to consume. I remember that when My Dad kill the chicken by cut its throat where the big vein exists. I used to have a job as the helper to hold the chicken. My Mom would seperated the head and threw it away. Even if we bought a chicken meat from the market, No Head at all.
Getting Married and move away from my hometown to South East Tangerang, Banten (was West Java), I found out that people there consume the head or cook it for many recipes too. Chicken's soup is the most familiar one. I always ask the vegetable seller who also sells chicken meat and fishes to seperates the chicken head for me๐ I don't use it.
My FIL was doing the shopping last week, He bought half of the chicken including the head and I keep it๐. I want to know, who will eat it. I made a simply cook. Put all kind of spices I have like nutmeg,candlenut,coriander,pepper,cumin,cardamom, roasted coconut's flake, chilli, turmeric, ginger, garlic and shallot, cinnamon,clove, star anise,bayleaf and coconut milk, with kaffir lime leaf and lemongrass too.
Stir-fry all the mashed seasoning (chilli,pepper,garlic,ginger,shallot,turmeric,cumin,coriander,nutmeg,candlenut and roasted coconut's flake) then add bayleaf,lemongrass, cardamom, star anise, clove,cinnamon bark, kaffir lime leaf till it smell good then put in the chicken meat, pour some waters and let it till half-cooked on medium heat. Pour the coconut milk and keep stir it up until well-cooked. Arghh.. don't forget to add salt to the taste๐.
Guess.. who ate the chicken head?
yeaahh.. My Hubby๐
I think he did it after he saw the picture I shared on facebook where all the commenters freakin out๐๐๐.
Yeaahh.. many friends from Aceh thought it's kinda creepy cooking ๐ well.. you won't know the taste until you take a chance to eat it.
and this soup is today's menu for lunch๐
Anyway, what do you think about chicken head?
Have you ever eat it? What's the best recipe for it?
That looks delicious but I think I'd eat everything except the chicken head. ๐

๐๐ Thank you @dandays๐ I was thinking of joining the food fight friday.. but it's a foodfight not freakin'friday ๐ though..I know the weirdest chicken head image on my hubby's post last year too.. (will check on it in my google photos because we shared the same phone at that time).
I dunno what stopped me to put the #fff before I changed it to palnet and food๐๐ I mean it. I miss the moment I hang around the #fff kitchen too.
I love his dread hair too๐ thinking about it, I was curious about it and fallen for him after I found his picture with that hair ๐๐๐๐ My mom told him to cut that hair before our wedding day and I stand for him to keep the dread, no matter happened at that timeโบ

Iโm also whitelisted with them, what benefit are you referring to, if you wouldnโt mind explaining? I was under the impression being whitelisted just meant you can buy yourself votes (something I havenโt done), am I mistaken?

No chicken head. It gives me the willys. I am so picky about the meat I eat. If I can see anything that reminds me that it was once alive, I can't eat it. The chicken head fits that. Now the picture of the soup, looks amazing. If you told me there was a chicken head in it, I couldn't do it. I would be looking for grey matter and what have you.

Of you ever in a survival situation like me before due to the conflict, basic training of mountain climber and disasters.. you won't mind to eat anything available around๐.. it's just a chicken head anyway (I don't eat it either๐๐๐).
Don't worry about the veggie soup๐ it's free from animal product.. carrot,potatoe,bean, cabbage, celery,leek, ginger, onion, tomato, garlic and cinnamon๐..ahh.. coconut oil too. So.. it's animal free๐

If my survival depended on it, I would eat to survive. Survival changes everything. I think the soup would be fine with the chicken in it. I just couldn't know it was the head. Completely dumb I know.
With what you mention it the soup...those ingredients I can get.
