Hainanese Chicken Rice
If there is one thing the “ang moh” would eat .. is chicken rice from home. When you can’t get the authentic ones.. you make do with the closest.. and Asian Home Gourmet is easy to prepare. But you see, we can’t get it here.. we either have to go to the city.. or like this packet.. it came from a great blogging friend. Thank you very much. Of course, we already ate it and it was great.. but just enough for one meal .. for the 3 of us.
PS : For your info, when “ang moh” went to Singapore to visit me .. for 5 weeks.. before i came home with him permanently, he would eat only chicken rice.. and satay.
So any kind soul outta the 10 thousands of visitors here everyday .. would like to send me some chicken rice paste.. please let me know.. muahhahahaha!!! If no one sends me some.. i know .. i can count on Barb from ChumsyAshley to take pity on me.. and send me some.. muahahahha!! right Barb..??
No problem, I would love to send you some of these paste develop by a Singapore company (cannot remember the name, but its good), so give me your address and i will send you mee siam paste, chicken rice paste and laksa pasta or what else i can find
lol .. didnt know there are such paste around .. do they taste good?.. XD
I love this chicken paste too. It’s really easy and taste quite good. If I manage to get hold of some, will send to you. Please email me your address. Thank you once again for searching the web for good films.
I LOVE Hainanese chicken rice!!! I didn’t know there’s such a thing around. i wonder if i can find it where I live?!? I tried this dish every time I see it on the menu, but I was disappointed every time. Nothing bet the one I had in Singapore. this is brand really good? I’ve never seen this brand before. I hope I will find it or something similar, cuz I really want to eat this dish again.
chicken rice…i love the sauce and the cucumber slices that come with…
I have the same pack, actually two of them sitting in my kitchen. planning to try these out but i did a claypot chicken rice instead tonight. ill let you know when i try that next week. hehe. my bf- angmoh also. he loves asian food, he’s hooked on hainanese chicken rice & nasi lemak!
i have never try those before.maybe i should one day since dat most of u fans dat r usin mama bok’s site sayin is good
y don u tell us more about how u prepare the food (with pictures)?
that will be much fun!
I love Hainanese chicken rice. I didn’t know a product like that was out there. Wonder if I can find it in NYC
Ok ok, try to get u the pack from NTUC (if there is). PM me the postage address ya… think u got my email address….
mmMMmmm yummmy
Too bad I am not living in Singapore and it is not very easy to get chinese stuffs as well in Japan. If not, I will send over to Canada for you.
My husband is a 100% Japanese. He likes all chinese food especially food from Singapore and Taiwan. I like satay too. And that square rice which comes with satay. Thanks for all the uploading mama bok. wish you well.
no problem
i’ll go look for it…hehehhee
It looks good, I never see those king of chicken rice in my city, montreal (CANADA). I would like to taste it!!!!!
It sounds good and looks good. I have not seen that package at my local stores. Wish I could try it.
i’ll get you some the next time i see it at the grocery stores!:)
looks delicious making me so hungry right now
That looks interesting. Hainan chicken rice is the best. I wonder how this packaged one tastes compared to the freshly cooked.
JaC
Yea, totally understand when you are living faraway from home… these are what we go after. Hainanese Chicken Rice has always been one of my favourites back home, thought it’s been 4 years now I never had it too! The biggest cash & carry Chinese supermarket in my area is just 15 mins away… I could probably pop-in and look for them Asian food paste for you… In the mean time, will have to wait for my good news… hehe
Have a great day!
Send me your mailing address to my email: rpoon731@hotmail.com. I send you several packets of Prima ready to cook paste (chicken satay, mee siam, and of course chicken rice).Must help a fellow singaporean in need of home cooked food.
I love chicken rice too mama bok!!! and really thanks for all the good shows!!!
I missed Hainanese Chicken rice too Mamabok!!! Especially the steamy fragrant rice with the silky soft chicken … Your post makes me homesick again
Wow, I really like the chicken rice and eat it all week since I just returned back from Singapore. I have not seen those package. We may move to Singapore soon. I am a little of apprehensive but excited. Thank for all those uploading.
Hi, Exellent product. I like to eat chieken rice too, this product only singapore have. disappointed.
Mamabok, too bad i could not sent you some real chicken ric, but i could sent the receipe from Malaysia..haha.. you know, Malaysia have some fantastic chicken rice also..
http://www.malaysianfood.net/recipes/recipehainanchicken.htm.
And by the way, Ipoh, Perak, Malaysia is renowned for its Nga Choy Kai.. (Bean Sprout Chicken) which attracts people from all over Malaysia and Singapore.. Everyone loves it.
i have never try that package but it looks yummy =)
It seems convenient! But do they come with sauce? I like eating rice with sauce
Hey, I was at the supermarket earlier today. Couldn’t find this brand. Actually I couldn’t find any Hainanese Chicken Rice paste
Only saw Briyani Rice paste. Would you like that? Anyway, I’ll continue to look for it. In the meantime, if you crave for this, do add lots of stir-fried garlic and chicken broth into your rice when you cook it. A bit more work than usual 
Hopefully I can find this paste or similar ones ASAP 
I have never seen anything like tat.
Can’t you get the recipe to make this, i find that fresh food tastes better than packed ones.
If I do go S’pore I will make sure to look for this.
I love this, its aq treat when my mum makes it for me. One of my favourite dish!
Howdi? I planned to buy you some ready to cook pastes. You will be amazed by the variety that is being marketed these days. Please post your address again. By the way, do you brew herbal soups? Dong sum and dong kwei, yok chok? I understand from the canadian post office website that if one sends a parcel gift not exceeding the value of 60 canadian dollars, you donch have to pay taxes. Or it doesn’t matter?
oh wow,
I LOVE the authentic ones, I’ve never tried the ones in the pack. but I will definately give it a try soon!
hainanese chicken rice is delicious@
I love eat rice, i used to make fly rice for my kids.
I have not tried this chicken rice mix but I had been cooking the ones from Prima Deli. I heard about this brand before but could not find it easily. OMG, you are making me hungry!
When you can’t find those chicken paste anywhere…making it yourself is not hard neither…as long as you have rice cooker! Same way as cooking rice, except using chicken broth instead of water, add one tbsp of chicken oil (or vegetable oil), a couple slices of ginger & scallion when cooking. Bon appetite!
Is the paste good? Just had dinner but u’re making me hungry again
wonder if it’s good, is it easy to make? i would probably try to do that some day, it’s seems easy than cook.
Hi Mamabok,
I never seen this item at the gorcery store. I’m from USA (California). I love Hainanese Chicken Rice, but I usually eat that @ an Authentic Chinese Restaurant. I’ve never try or seen any frozen item like this. I found the website that you can purchase these online http://www.asianhomegourmetdirect.co.uk/proddetail.asp?prod=SP7048
I love Hainanese Chicken Rice. The ginger paste on the side is my favorite!!
How do you prepare the food with the paste? Usually, I just use chicken, ginger and make my own.
didn’t know such thing exist!
Hainanese Chicken could be considered one of the best chicken rice among the chinese.I am not a hainanese but I enjoy every mouthful of hainanese chicken rice. I live in a little town called Kuala Terengganu in Malaysia. We are lucky in the sense that we can obtain our chicken rice from every nook and corner.
By the way, there is a substantial Hainanese community in Kuala Terengganu.
i am glad u introduce this to me because it will be cheaper then eating it at the restaurant!
btw, thanks for taking time out of your busy life to post all the links to the dramas and movies. Very much appreciated.
i usually just eat it at restaurants, is the package that good though?
Hehe..i will send you some lovely tom yam paste too…if you crave for it..give me your address…
I’m cooking chicken rice tonight!
I just eat some malaysia chow kai tai with (see ham) The raw clams. and prawn noodles and chisken yellow rice in New york yesterday. That take my craving alway from your food website. hahaha
Love Hainanese Chicken Rice. I live in San Francisco, I don’t think I’ve seen this being sold here. I will pay more attention when grocery shopping next time. Thanks for sharing.
i never seen rice like that before lol
Yum! I love Hainaese Chicken rice (especially the seasoned rice)! Wonder if that package version taste good. I always wanted to make it myself but after checking out the recipes, it takes too much work. So I’ll stick to eating Hainanese Chicken Rice at a restaurant!
The rice looks yummy!
Frankly, I never imagine this thing exist till see your post. It’s an eye opener ^^
Tell me if you how many you need and if you are interested in any other flavours. The supermarkets here in Ontario have lots of it. Please email me your address.
As yummy as it is, I have to cut down on consumption as it is a bit oily. Need to loose the baby fat before I got back to work
That chicken rice look authentic!! You dont have any asian restaurant around? poor thing, cant survive without one.
I got the packets liao MamaBok… how to send to u???? better let me know.. else it’ll surely rot in my kitchen cabinets!!!
i never tried hainanese chicken rise. LOL it’s been like several times i read the word hainanese but i didnt know what it really means until i type it out in this comment box LOL!!!!
now i remember i know this dish from Yummy Yummy. They were in Singapore and their famous dish is “hoi nam guy fan”
I’ve never tried Hainan chicken rice but have always heard about it. Will order one when I’m at a restaurant the next I go.
I love your food blog, I always browse through it during lunch time or in the middle of the night. Always makes me hungry!
The only chicken rice i like is @ Mandarin Hotel. They’ve shifted to Revolving Restaurant due to their major renovation. Presentation is good n unlimited servings of soup n rice but of course, only one serving for their chicken, which you can request for drumstick or chicken breast with or without skin.
i
love
you
mama
bok
really miss hainan chicken from singapore….
Wow, would love some of those chicken rice too. Living in Seosan small town in Korea is not as easy as I thought. Thought I can live on Korean food but after 2 bouts of flu, diarrhea and throwing up, I need some food from home. Anyone know of any good roast duck in Seoul? Don’t mind travelling for a morsel of that!
I think everybody seems to enjoy Hainaese Chicken rice. There is a place in West End in Brisbane, Australia that seems to do a very good Hainaese chicken rice especially when the chicken is boneless. By the way I too would like to know what the paste is called.
I can mail food to you if you want. E-mail me if your interested in doing so and we can start arranging it. I regularly mail english food to HK and chinese food to France. My cousin is studying in France and eats lots of Nissin noodles or cup noodles. (We call the nissin noodles in cantonese direct translation ‘cartoon noodles’). Since the they are dry and light, its quite cheap to mail. Small price to pay since he doesn’t like soggy, tasteless and non-authentic noodles.
PS keep up the good work and continue hosting more vids
Do anyone of you find this package in the east coast? I cant find it in our Asian grocery Store. I would like to try it.
Mama Bok You’re the best! Thank you very much for everything!
I will be going to Singapore this June and will get you some CHNG Kee products. Visit this website: http://www.chngkees.com.sg/home.htm
My two boys enjoy eating Satay (at least 50 sticks a day) and chicken rice each time we go back. Their “new found” food is clay pot rice. Take care!
nothing compares to the real thing! get to eat that at home anytime!!
I can go to the grocery store and see if i can get some for u… send your address to my email…! wish me luck!
Hey Mamabok,
I already went ahead and purchased Prima Food Packets in Chicken Rice & Mee Siam flavors. Please let me know your mailing address so I can send to you.

I too live in Canada. I have always loved Hainanese Chicken Rice. Every time I go to restaurants, I always order it, but what goes into my mouth is not that good. I have always wanted to try the traditional flavour of this food, but all the restaurants I order it at, cannot give me the goodness and the mouth watering effect that i want!
hi mama bok
hope ur family is doing well
mmm those look yummy ^^ was it yummy though O:
I went to the store yesterday and tried to find this, they don’t have it. But they have so many different varieties of everything else. What’s your address so I can send you some. BTW, thanks so much for posting. You’re awesome.
Mama Bok! I happen to work for a huge drug store/ grocery store. We sell tons of those packages. There’s Indian butter chicken, Szechuan chili and ginger, Thai roast chicken, and lots more. we have all but the singapore chicken you have there. If you would like some. e-mail me your address and i’ll try to get you some. But I have to send it to you from Vancouver though.
You can try cooking your rice with chicken broth (original, not canned) instead of water.
It should turn out as tasty as using that chicken paste.
You can always buy the chicken bones, cook them up, just to make the broth.
Good luck!
