Calypot Chicken Rice ini memang sedap, rasanya memang menjadi favorite anak-anak sebab rasa kicapnya dan tidak pedas. Biasanya dijual di Food Court tetapi nak dapat yang halal agak payah la sebab sajian ini adalah sajian masyarakat Cina. Kalau ada pun kadang-kadang tekak ni rasa was-was juga. Jadi jawapan kepada kesemua kemusykilan ini ialah buat sendiri.

Resipi dan bahanya agak mudah tetapi yang agak leceh sedikit ialah hendak memasaknya. Namanya Claypot Chicken Rice, maka kena masak guna Claypot dan perlu masak satu persatu. Satu claypot bersize kecil ni muat untuk satu cawan nasi. Sukatanya mudah aje. 1 cawan beras, 1 cawan air dan bahan-bahan untuk ayam. Nasi ini kalau dimasak biarkan kerak-kerak sedikit, memang sedap. Lagi kerak lagi bagus.
