Slices of roasted chicken spread over a bed of fried rice, with a mango sauce poured over the top. I have included my recipe for fried rice here, but any would be suitable. The better quality the mango the better the dish. I have not tried this with fresh mangoes as you need the juice from the tin, however I'm sure it would add to the flavour to use fresh mango and a mango nectar or juice.

My family loved ordering this dish at our local Thai restaurant, but then they closed down for some unknown reason (they were always busy). So I decided to recreate this traditional dish at home. My husband says it's just like the restaurant...maybe even better? Please note that some people like to eat the ginger, while others don't but like the flavour it gives. You can easily double this recipe to serve a larger group...plus it makes great leftovers.
Lovely winter meal
My nanny made this for me as a child growing up in Malaysia and I learnt to cook it and it's been my favourite fried rice dish EVER! I'm a student and so I make this dish a lot simply because it barely takes any effort at all.
