Poached chicken served over rice cooked in chicken broth with a ginger-soy dipping sauce, Khao Man Gai is Thailand's most comforting breakfast dish -- available from street stalls at dawn across Bangkok where office workers eat it before work. The Thai adaptation of Hainanese chicken rice (brought by Chinese migrants in the early 20th century) is characterized by its ginger-forward dipping sauce and optional soup made from the chicken poaching broth -- a complete meal for 60 baht.
