Making Hainanese Chicken rice today.  

To go with this dish I usually make a garlic,ginger,spring onion dipping sauce and a spicy chilli sauce, which brings me to my next story about my new micro planer. 
After my last one fell apart, I was astonished at the cost of replacing one. I finally  saw a bargain that was half price at $20 at House in Forest Hill Shopping Center.
A micro planer is a worthwhile investment as it makes it so much easier when grating the garlic and ginger for my dipping sauce.  There are many brands of micro-planers in the market and as you can see from the picture, the one I bought was a Microplane which is probably one of the most expensive I have seen.  However, it is significantly better than the old one that I had. It grates the garlic and ginger very finely which I require for both dipping and chilli sauce.

Above is the dish with the accompanying sauces on the side.
