Claypot Rice (Sah Puh Fan)

Today I cooked my very own Sah Puh Fan (Claypot rice).

Ingredients:

• 1 Lap Cheong (Chinese sweet sausage) Get the fatty one instead of the lean one – diagonally sliced
• 150gm lean pork meat, minced
• 1 stalk of shallot, chopped
• Ginger juice-1.5 cm of ginger, peeled and grated, pressed for juice
• 2 salted eggs, yolk separated from egg white
• Dash of pepper
• 1 tablespoon of soy sauce

Sauce (for 2 pots):

• 2 tablespoon of Soy sauce
• 2 tablespoon of dark soy sauce
• 2 teaspoon of sesame oil
• 1 teaspoon of olive oil

Mix minced pork meat with chopped shallots, 1 tablespoon of light soy sauce. Dash of pepper and ginger juice. Add in 1 tablespoon of salted egg white. Mix well. Set aside
Use a claypot, put 1/2 cup rice with 1.5 cup water to cook the rice. Bring the water to boil, and then cook in slow fire.

About 10 minute, when the rice is about to cooked (you can see the rice forming but still watery), add in Lap Cheong, Pork mixture and salted egg yolk on top. Arrange them all around the rice surface. Mix the sauce ingredient well, pours on top of the rice. Pour 1 tablespoon of salted egg white all around the surface of the rice.
Close the lid and let it cooks for another 5~10 minute or until the rice and meat is cooked.

The fat from the lap Cheong and juice from the meat will sip down and flavor the rice.Serve!

I hope you like this Sah Puh Fan. I choose a fatty Lap Cheong because I want the fat from the Lap Cheong to flavor the rice.

Important Note: the recipe above makes 2 small pot of claypot rice. So divide the ingredients accordingly :)
