Ingredients
Method
Techniques
  • 3 cups homemade chicken stock
  • 3 cups water
  • 1 cup plain white rice
Bring three cups each of chicken stock and water to a simmer and add one cup of plain white rice.
Cook over low heat one and a half hours until the rice breaks down into a porridge, topping up with more stock if it gets too thick.
  • shredded dark meat
  • 2–3 tbsp finely minced ginger
  • 2–3 tbsp garlic
About ten minutes before the end add the shredded dark meat and two to three tablespoons each of finely minced ginger and garlic; cook only five to ten minutes so the ginger and garlic keep their crunch and heat.
  • kosher salt
  • thinly sliced scallions
  • Szechuan chili crisp
Season to taste with kosher salt and serve topped with thinly sliced scallions and Szechuan chili crisp.
