Easy Glutinous Rice Bowl
Ever thought of reproducing that fancy glutinous rice dish wrapped in lotus leaf that you eat at "yum cha"? Here's the cheat method for 4 small cappuccino cup serves:
1 cup glutinous rice (the white opaque chalky rice also known as "sweet rice")
1/2 cup boiling water
2 tablespoon stock
1 teaspoon sesame oil
2 teaspoon soy sauce
2 teaspoon olive oil
1 Chinese sausage, sliced
1 cup chopped vegetables (or chicken and shiitake)
Rinse the rice to remove some starch. Soak for 2 hours until translucent. Drain in a sieve.
Put the rice in a souffle dish. Pour the boiling water to the level of the rice. Place a dish over to cover. Microwave on 30% power for 15 minutes.
While the rice is cooking, render the fat from the sausage using the olive oil. Add the vegetable and saute for 2 minutes.
When the rice is done, stir in the stock, sesame oil and soy sauce. Next stir in the cooked sausage and vegetables.
Put the mixture in cappuccino cups while still hot. Turn the cup over a sauce. Leave the cup on to keep the meal warm. Microwave for 2 minutes if necessary to heat the meal. Remove the cup at the table just before serving.
