  • 32.00 gm brown sugar
  • 24.00 gm sesame seeds, toasted, ground
  • 60ml (1/4 cup) tamari
  • 20.00 gm caster sugar

Instructions:
  • Combine spices and salt in a small frying pan and gently heat until aromatic. Allow to cool, then grind into a flavorful powder using a pestle and mortar. Sprinkle the mixture over the chicken and steam for 15 minutes over simmering water until nearly cooked.
  • Prepare the wok by lining it with a double layer of foil. Place tea, rice, and brown sugar in the bottom. Place a small wire rack on top. Cook over medium heat until the mixture starts to smoke. Place the chicken on the rack, cover the wok, and smoke the chicken for 5 minutes. Allow it to cool before serving.
  • Combine sesame seeds, tamari, caster sugar, vinegar, oil, chilli, and garlic in a bowl and whisk until well blended.
  • Combine all salad ingredients with the desired dressing in a bowl, distribute evenly onto plates, and garnish with thinly sliced chicken before serving.
