Burnt Chicken Breast Pudding (Kazandibi)


Makes 6 servings
1 chicken chest * 1 tbsp lemon juice * 7 cups milk * ½ tsp salt * 1 ½ cup sugar * 2 tbsp flour * 2 tbsp corn starch * 1 tbsp rice flour

First cut the chicken chest into two and cook it in water and lemon juice. Turn off the fire and let it cool down. Separate the chicken in very small pieces. Place the chicken pieces in cold water for some minutes. Then, rub the chicken with the hands and wash it at the same time until it looses all the smell. Dry the chicken and reserve. Meanwhile, place the milk in a cooking pan. Add the sugar and the salt and mix. Bring it to boil. In a bowl, mix the flour, the corn starch and the rice flour. When the milk starts to boil, take a small amount of it and mix with the flours and starch. Then, add this mixture slowly to the milk. Cook over low fire for five minutes. Add the chicken and mix with a fork. Cook for more 10 minutes. When the mixture becomes thick take from the fire. While the cream is still hot, pour it on a large cooking tray (it can be the oven tray) and bring it to fire. Turn the tray occasionally, so the heat can achieve all the area of the tray. Wait 3-4 hours. Cut into squares and turn the burnt surface to the top.

This sweet is delicious. No one would say that the chicken is a part of the ingredients because no one notices it.
