Olive vegetables fried rice with baked honey chicken

This recipe is passed down from my father and I've no idea whether foodstalls/restaurants have been selling this, but to be true, I never try it at any foodstalls/restaurants before.


Olive vegetables are chinese style of olives that are being processed to look different from the western olives. To make it sounds horrible and disgusting, it resembles bundles of hair that are wet and soggy. Yucks!


It's not pickled with acidic solution and left for fermentation which the western olives are processed.
The olive vegetable is therefore lack of the sourish taste and it's normally added to plain porridge for extra taste.
