Instructions

1

Brown and braise

Brown chicken pieces in a heavy pot (5 min). Add ginger, garlic, soy sauces, bay leaves, and enough water to almost cover. Simmer 15 min.

2

Add potatoes and noodles

Add potato chunks. Simmer 20 min until potatoes are tender and starting to break down into the sauce. Add soaked glass noodles in last 3 min. The sauce should be thick enough to coat everything.

Pro Tips for Western Kitchens

Let some potato break down naturally into the sauce — it thickens the braising liquid without adding cornstarch.
