whole chicken

🥗Healthier: skinless chicken breast

💰Cheaper: bone-in chicken thighs

Skinless breast reduces fat, while thighs are often less expensive.

jasmine rice

🥗Healthier: brown rice

💰Cheaper: white rice

Brown rice offers more fiber, while white rice is generally cheaper.

soy sauce

🥗Healthier: low-sodium soy sauce

💰Cheaper: tamari

Low-sodium options reduce sodium intake, and tamari is gluten-free.

sesame oil

🥗Healthier: olive oil

💰Cheaper: canola oil

Olive oil is heart-healthy, while canola is often more affordable.

Place the rice, spring onion, ginger, garlic and chicken stock in the bowl of a rice cooker.

Nestle the chicken pieces into the rice.

Close the lid and select the Automatic setting on the rice cooker, then press Start.

Leave until the rice cooker automatic function finishes and the rice and chicken are cooked through.

For the spring onion sauce, use a mortar and pestle to bruise the spring onion and salt until it forms a rough paste.

Place the vegetable oil and sesame oil in a small saucepan over high heat.

Heat until a chopstick or wooden spoon placed in to the oil sizzles.

Then carefully pour the hot oil over the spring onion paste.

Stir until combined.

Spoon out into a small serving bowl or dish.

To serve, transfer the chicken to a chopping board.

Slice the thigh pieces.

Serve with the rice, spring onion sauce, sambal oelek and cucumber.
