Instructions
Steamed Rice Instructions
Wash the rice and place it in a cooking pot.
Add the same amount of water as the rice.
Cook over medium heat.
Lower the heat once it has boiled; let it simmer until the rice has absorbed all the water.
Under very low heat, let it steam for about 3 to 5 minutes until the rice is tender and set aside.
Heat cooking oil in a wok and saute garlic.
Add rice and toss until they are done.
Season with salt and pepper according to taste.
Pork Topping Instructions
Heat cooking oil in a pan.
Saute garlic until fragrant, add onions and cook until translucent.
Add the pork and cook until brown.
Add the green peas.
Add salt and pepper (we skipped the pepper because the kids don’t like it).
Mix the cornstarch in 1/2 litre of cold water (add more cornstarch for a thicker consistency).
Add the mixture into the pan.
Stir and let it boil.
Add sugar and stir occasionally.
Add the soy sauce (you can adjust the amount according to your taste).
Simmer for about 5 minutes.
Add sesame oil and chilli sauce, then mix well (we skipped the chilli sauce).
Remove from heat.
Ladle steamed rice into a bowl and cover it with the pork topping generously.
Place bowls in a steamer, cover and steam for about 10 minutes, then serve hot.
