Cantonese Sticky Rice, Lo Mai Fan (臘味糯米飯)

Step 1

Measure out jasmine rice and glutinous rice, and wash 3 times, pouring out the starchy water and using fresh water. Let the rinsed rice drain in a colander.

Step 2

Wash the dried shrimp in clean water, and drain. Then, soak the dried shrimp in warm water.

Step 3

Cut the cured pork belly into strips, and then dice into small pieces. Make the pieces a similar size and shape to the diced mushrooms.

Step 4

Peel garlic. Then, smash and mince them finely.

Step 5

Add boiling water to the rice cooker, or whichever cooking vessel you prefer.

Step 6

When the rice is done cooking, it's time to start stir-frying everything together!

Step 7

Stir the rice with chopsticks to make sure that the seasoning from earlier is well-mixed. Add oil to the rice and stir it in.

Step 8

Scoop the sticky rice into the serving dish. If you reserved those stir-fried ingredients and green garnishes, layer on the stir-fried ingredients first, and then sprinkle the green garnishes on top. Enjoy!
