the dish is largely about the sauce, which i understand is actually made in china and shipped to the US, so all you need is someone slightly more qualified than a trained chimp to run the pressure cooker to partially cook the chicken before assembling with the sauce, shiitakes, serranos & ginger in clay pots. that and washing the rice and putting the right amount of water in the rice cookers. and the dish was originally sold without rice, with people adding rice to the dish. having recently eaten at that clay pot place on valley in SG, i can’t imagine eating a clay pot rice dish without that crispy rice, but it is what it is.
