Cut the chicken into small pieaces. Peel and cut the carrot, burdock, bamboo shoot, lotus root diagonally into about 2cm-thick pieces. Soak the burdock and lotus root in water and drain. Blanch the konnyaku and drain, then tear into small pieces. Soak the dried shiitake mushrooms, then slice into 4 pieces. Fry the chicken in a deep frying pan, then add the carrots, burdock, shiitake mushrooms, bamboo shoot, lotus root, and konnyaku. Add the sugar, mirin, soy sauce, and dashi. Allow it to come to a boil, then skim the surface and put a lid on. Simmer this for about 15 minutes. Serve in a bowl, and add some blanched snow peas for garnish.

Introduction
This is a recipe I found in a Harumi Kurihara book. Basically, it's simmered vegetables with a sort of Japanese stock. Some of the ingredients may be hard to find, so I'm sure you can substitute for something else.
