Chicken rice in China and in Singapore, the chicken is often boiled, then doused in a bath of ice water, in Thailand that is usually not the case, especially for street food style khao man gai (ข้าวมันไก่) - instead the chicken is just boiled and left to cool down on its own.

- Remove any excess fat from the chicken, and pierce the skin and the thick parts of the meat several times with a fork. Add some sake and salt (not listed in the ingredients) and massage in well. Put on top of the rice in the rice cooker, and switch the cooker on.
- Combine the ingredients marked ● (doubanjiang, mirin, soy sauce, vinegar, honey, chopped leek, sesame oil) to make the sauce. Taste and adjust the amounts of the ingredients. (A sauce made by combining chopped leek, garlic, ginger, mirin, soy sauce and sesame oil is also delicous.)

- Put the rice on a serving plate. Top with chicken, tomatoes, cucumbers, snow peas cooked in salted water etc. as garnish, plus finely julienned ginger. Pour the sauce over it and serve. (Take the sliced ginger in the rice out before serving.)
Few slices of cucumber are placed on the side. Khao Man Gai is the Thai version of a Hainanese Chicken and Rice. It is quite popular in Thailand, but not often served at Thai restaurants in the west.
