Poached Chicken Congee
Yotam Ottolenghi, Helen Goh, Verena Lochmuller and Tara Wigley · Ottolenghi COMFORT
This is comfort food by so many measures. The soothing texture of the chicken and porridge; the chicken-soup-for-the-soul; bowl food eaten with a spoon or chopsticks. It’s the sort of food we eat when we are in need of something soothing and convivial, and is a dish that takes Helen straight back home. Kids love it too: you might just hold back on the sprinkle of peppercorns and chilli at the end. Getting ahead: The congee is best made fresh, but the chicken can be poached and shredded the day before. You’ll need to warm it up before serving, or stir it into the hot congee, rather than placing on top.
