Vietnamese Style Chicken Stock

Vietnamese Style Chicken Stock is a lovely simple variation on the western chicken stock. While this dish starts with chicken broth/stock it is further flavoured by the addition of soy sauce and fish sauce. These give it an amazing depth. Include as a stock in gravy, soups and casseroles for that extra brilliant flavour.

The star anise and fish sauce give this stock a surprising warmth that adds to every recipe.
