📖 The Story Behind This Dish

A creative dish making a Southeast Asian coconut milk stew with the Japanese pairing of chicken breast and ginger. With no curry paste, just fish sauce and ginger for seasoning, the coconut's gentle sweetness stands out. A coating of potato starch keeps the breast meat moist. Ingredients are kept to a minimum so it can be made with things you're likely to have at home.

🌆 Where it's eaten: On a rainy evening, chicken simmers gently in white coconut broth as the scent of ginger rises in the kitchen.
