Good Old Simmered Vegetables

Hey ya!!! It was only 4 degrees this morning...
Pretty cold for November... It's so hard to adjust to the temperature!!!

Since it was pretty cold today,
I decided to make good old simmered vegetables with chicken in...lol

This simmering method is very common in Japanese food, and very traditional. I like it because brings the flavor and can actually taste the Vegetables!!!!!
This method, usually use seasoning to taste the dish;

1. Soy sauce
2. Sugar
3. Dashi
4. Pinch of salt
5. Water
   If you have these, you are set to go!!! you can make typical Japanese simmered dish.
   
   Today, I used carrot, lotus root, and sticky potatoes called Sato-Imo. Lotus root is the one with holes in, and sticky one has a bit of hair around the body.
   You just cut them in bite size, pan fry them a bit, add all the seasoning that I mentioned, cook it until vegetables are soften.

For this much of ingredients, you need about...

• 500ml of water
• 3 Tbs of sugar
• 50ml of soy sauce
• 1 sachet of fish stock (Dashi)
• Pinch of Salt

You may not be able to find the Sato-imo (sticky potato),
then maybe you can use normal potatoes as well..

I hope you like this traditional way of cooking
Thanks
