INSTRUCTIONS
SAUCE
Season chicken with salt, allspice, and freshly ground pepper, then wet it
with coconut milk. Let it settle for a few hours. Toast coconut until light
brown. One hour before using, make egg batter of 2 eggs and 1/3 cup of
coconut milk. Roll chicken in the toasted coconut, then dip in egg batter,
and fry in clarified butter in a skillet untill golden brown, approximately
25 minutes.
Serves 2
To Make Coconut milk:
Grate the meat from a quarter of a fresh cocunut. Pour 1 cup hot milk over
it and let stand 1 hour. Strain through 2 thicknesses of cheesecloth and
squeeze dry. Makes 1 cup.
To Clarify butter:
Melt butter in small pan over low heat. Pour off the clear golden liquid
and discard the milky sediment remaining in the pan.
FOR THE SAUCE:
Cut leg of chicken and breast bones in pieces. Heat oil with paprika in
frying pan; add chicken and cook slowly, covered for 30 mminutes, turning
once or twice. Add mushroom stems and cook 10 minutes more. Then add flour,
smoothing it in to prevent lumps. Add sour cream and cook slowly -- do not
let it boil -- until juices are well-mixed. Add brown gravy, boil, and
season with salt, pepper, and lemon juice. Strain and serve with the
breasts. Serve on silver platter topped with a sugar glazed pineapple ring
and garnished with wild rice.
