Another one of those traditional chinese dishes that I love but M hates. My mom gave me this recipe when I was in my chinese cooking phase, before I got my French cookbook and starting exploring western cuisines. My initial experiments with this dish were not that successful, I fried the chicken for too long before adding the sauce. A breakdown in communication as I thought my mom said fry the chicken till its completely dried. Lets just say the end product wasn't that good. At least, I have learnt from my mistakes. Anyway, fry garlic cloves and ginger slices in sesame oil till fragrant, add in the chicken and just fry it till its brown on both sides. Add soya sauce, sugar, chinese wine and simmer till the chicken is cooked. Mix in some spring onions and serve with rice. The three cups is referring to 1 cup of soya, 1 cup of chinese wine and 1 cup of sesame oil. I am assuming that the cups are quite small. Its actually quite cute, the names of these recipes.
