Carrot Pear Juice, Lemon Coke Chicken Wings

Yesterday we dined out in a HK-style Italian restaurant, we ordered a 牛肝菌燒雞煱配珍珠飯 & honey pomelo chicken wings. However the food were just soso especially the 4 chicken wings which cost us $29 but tasteless. So my hubby asked if I could do chicken wings again, coke flavoured. And so today I decided to do a special recipe - lemon coke chicken wings so that I can make good use of my lovely lime juice XD I bought a small bottle of lime juice from 759 store. They have two colours: yellow as lemon juice & green as lime juice. And they are in fruit shape, so cute! I picked the green one as I need lime to do my Thai and Vietnamese for some occasions.

Ingredients: (for 2 person)
Chicken Wings: 6-8 pcs
Coke: 200 ml
Seasonings:
Dark soy sauce: 4 tbsp
Rock sugar: optional (I prefer not to add any sugar as coke already contains enough)
Rice wine: 2 tbsp
Water: flex

1. Season the chicken wings as usual. Chicken powder is always helpful if yours are frozen ones.
2. Pour coke, soy sauce, rock sugar into a small pot and heat it until boiling.
3. Add chicken wings and pour some water on it until the sauce can cover all wings.
4. Continue boiling until the sauce thickens and carmeralizes. Done.

Some people may saute the chicken wings before pouring in coke and sauce. However I prefer a more healthy diet so I usually skip the sauteing step.

Today is Green Monday and though we broke the rule & had wings, I made also a healthy juice with my new blender to strike a diet balance - Carrot Pear Juice. Carrot is always a gd veggi as it contains lots of fibres & vitamins A, and it's nearly starch-free! While Pear also contains some fibres, vitamins C and is less allergenic than many other fruits (in chinese medicine it is considered as 'mild' 溫性水果')

Ingredients:
Carrot: 1 stick
Pear: 1 pc (there are variety of pears & I love to pick the sweeter types like 水晶梨)
Water: 200 ml

Just peel, dice and blend with your blender. That is!
