- 1.5 cups Water(adjust based on rice type and claypot size)
- 2 links Chinese sausage (lap cheong)(thinly sliced)

- 1
Marinate the chicken with soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, and white pepper for at least 15 minutes.
โฑ๏ธ 15 minutes - 2
Grease the inside of a claypot with vegetable oil, especially the bottom and sides.
๐ก ์ ๋ฌธ๊ฐ ํ: This helps prevent sticking and creates a crispy rice crust. - 3
Drain the soaked rice and spread it evenly in the bottom of the claypot. Add 1.5 cups of water and bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
โฑ๏ธ 5 minutes - 4
Once boiling, reduce heat to low, cover with a lid (a heatproof plate or foil can be used if the pot lid is not tight), and simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until most of the water is absorbed and the rice is partially cooked.
โฑ๏ธ 20 minutes๐ก ์ ๋ฌธ๊ฐ ํ: Listen for the bubbling to subside, indicating the water is nearly absorbed. - 5
Arrange the marinated chicken and sliced Chinese sausage over the partially cooked rice. If using, place the salted duck egg yolks on top.
๐ก ์ ๋ฌธ๊ฐ ํ: Distribute toppings evenly for balanced flavor. - 6
Cover the claypot again and continue to cook on low heat for another 15-20 minutes, or until the rice is fully cooked and the toppings are done. You should hear crackling sounds, indicating the formation of the crispy rice crust.
โฑ๏ธ 20 minutes๐ก ์ ๋ฌธ๊ฐ ํ: Increase heat slightly for the last 5 minutes if you desire a crispier bottom. - 7
Remove from heat and let it rest, covered, for 5-10 minutes before serving.
โฑ๏ธ 10 minutes - 8
Garnish with sliced scallions and julienned ginger before serving directly from the claypot.

- โThe ratio of water to rice might need adjustment depending on your claypot and rice cooker.
- โDon't overcrowd the claypot; it should be about two-thirds full.
- โA crispy rice crust (fan jiao) is a highly prized element of this dish.
