About this dish

A drumstick and a thigh in a sauce gone thick and glossy with red wine, soy and cane vinegar, whole shallots softened into it. There is a lot of ginger and garlic in here and you taste it: deep and savoury, with a sharp tang and fine strips of ginger over the top keeping the whole thing awake. The mousseline mash alongside catches the sauce. A drumstick and a thigh per person in their sauce, with the mousseline mash packed separately.

"Wow, that Filipino coq au vin is an absolute winner! The sauce was super rich with those exotic spices, and the chicken was beautifully tender. Such an original dish from Mr. Saucy—I’ll definitely be ordering it again next time."
