Chicken and Ginger Claypot (6)

A fragrant stew with plenty of broth from ” Alice’s Cook Book” by Alice Hart. Marinate the chicken for as long as possible- preferably the day before. To make a vegetarian version use vegetable stock, omit the fish stock, up the soy sauce to 5 tablespoons and replace the chicken with 500g marinated fried tofu pieces and 300g shitake mushrooms. It will only need 30 minutes cooking time. Serve with some sticky rice and stir fried greens.
