Ingredients: 1 cup jasmine rice; 6 cups chicken stock (preferably homemade); 3 cm knob fresh ginger, bruised; 2 stalks lemongrass, crushed; 4 quail eggs; 100 ml clarified butter or neutral oil; 8 cloves garlic, thinly sliced; 3 dried bird's-eye chilies; 30g fresh Thai basil leaves; 3 tbsp crispy fried shallots; 1 tsp fish sauce; Sea salt to taste; 2 spring onions, thinly sliced on bias

A morning reinterpretation of Thailand's comfort rice soup: jasmine rice simmered in fragrant chicken-ginger broth until creamy, crowned with perfectly poached quail eggs and a drizzle of clarified garlic oil infused with bird's-eye chili. Finished with a fine ash of ground Thai basil and a whisper of fried shallots for textural contrast.
