Heat wave has finally broken, so I feel like eating nice warm simmered dishes now.

It's also a good idea to use chest nuts to add a nice colour to the dish. Recipe by Deiji-daisy

Steps

1

Prepare the ingredients first. Peel the satoimo taro roots, and rub with salt. Put in a pot with water, bring to a boil, and drain the water. The flavour will get absorbed easily by doing this job.
2

Start cutting the ingredients. Cut the chicken, bamboo shoots, and carrot into large pieces. Rehydrate the dried shiitake mushrooms in water, and cut into 4 even pieces.
3

Thinly slice the ginger, and chop the Japanese leek. Heat oil in a pressure cooker or a frying pan, and stir-fry the ginger and Japanese leek.
4

When fragrant, add the chicken, and continue stir-frying. When cooked through, transfer to the pressure cooker. Pour in the water, and bring to a boil.
5

Add all the remaining vegetables. When it starts to boil, skim off the scum carefully.
6

Add all the flavouring ingredients. Add the star anise at the end, and cook for 15 minutes in the pressure cooker.
7

Leave it for a while, and you're done. Adjust the taste with a small amount of salt at the end, and enjoy.
