- 1
Rinse the rice thoroughly until the water runs clear. Soak the rice in fresh water for at least 30 minutes, then drain well.
- 2
Lightly oil the inside of a claypot with vegetable oil. Add the drained rice and 1.25 cups of water. Stir in the minced garlic and the white parts of the green onions.
- 3
Place the claypot over medium-high heat and bring the water to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover with a lid, and let it simmer for about 10-15 minutes, or until most of the water is absorbed and the rice is partially cooked.
- 4
Arrange the sliced lap cheong and lap yuk (if using) on top of the rice. Cover again and continue to cook on low heat for another 10-15 minutes, or until the rice is fully cooked and a crust has formed at the bottom.
đĄ Proffstips: Listen for a crackling sound, which indicates the rice is crisping up. - 5
While the rice is cooking, prepare the sauce by combining light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, sugar, and 1 tbsp of water in a small bowl. Stir well.
- 6
Once the rice is cooked, turn the heat up to high for 1-2 minutes to further crisp the bottom. Be careful not to burn it. Remove from heat.
đĄ Proffstips: You can rotate the pot over the flame for more even crisping. - 7
If using an egg, crack it onto the center of the rice and cover for a minute or two until the egg white is set but the yolk is still runny. Drizzle the prepared sauce over the rice and top with chopped green onions.
đĄ Proffstips
- âA traditional claypot is recommended for the best crispy bottom, but a heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven can be used as a substitute.
- âThe amount of water for the rice is crucial; too much will result in mushy rice, too little will burn it.
- âThe crispy bottom (guoba) is a prized part of this dish.
