Method

  1. 1

    Cook the sushi rice according to the pack and keep warm.

  2. 2

    Put the chicken thighs in a large pan, cover with 1.2 litres water and bring to the boil, skimming off any froth.

  3. 3

    Reduce to a simmer, cover and cook for 25 minutes until the chicken is tender and no pink remains at the bone.

  4. 4

    Lift out the chicken, pull the meat from the bones in large pieces and return it to the broth.

  5. 5

    Add the cabbage, leeks, shiitake and tofu and simmer for 8-10 minutes until the vegetables are tender.

  6. 6

    Mix the soy sauce, rice vinegar and lemon juice in a small bowl for a ponzu-style dip.

  7. 7

    Ladle the hot pot into bowls and serve with the rice and the ponzu dip.
