The Chinese Clay Pot Rice Recipe I Made People Order the Day Before

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

When I ran a secret kitchen, there were some items on the menu that required extra prep so you would have to order them 24 or 48 hours ahead of time, sometimes even a week. That doesn't mean this recipe is difficult-once you have the ingredients you want to use like pork belly and Chinese sausage it's really easy to put together. Think of it like an oven-baked Chinese rice casserole... only way more flavorful than that sounds.
Ingredients
1 Cup of long grain white rice, rinsed
1 slab of cured chinese porkbelly, sliced
3 Chinese sausages, sliced
2 tsp chicken powder
2 tsp sesame oil (if not using porkbelly)
Spices: bay leaf, star anise, toasted cumin
Directions
Preheat the Oven to 400º
Place the rinsed rice into a small claypot, mix with sausages, and fill with 1 cup of water mixed with chicken powder.
Add spices
Place in the oven, reduce heat to 375º and bake for 25 minutes, middle-low rack
After 25 minutes remove from the oven and either drizzle sides with sesame oil or top with porkbelcy and place back into the oven for 20 minutes more.
If desired finish on top of a hot burner smelling for when a toasty rice smell develops but paying attention nothing smells like it's burning. Burnt rice will ruin the whole thing
Serve

    If you don’t have a clay pot and want something similar then there’s lots of solid recipes for Persian tahdig which is, from what I can see, fairly similar in that it is rice cooked til it’s crispy underneath. There’s a number of very specific, thorough recipes for this type of crispy rice in a book called Persiana for anyone interested.

Also i like how you shared that you didnt make it absolutely perfectly but it still came out great. also your puppeh is the cutest!!!!!!!

    This video is what got me to start making clay pot rice at home and it *immediately* went into my usual rotation. I've had it before, and always thought it was so much more complex to make, but this was one of the vids that really showed how doable this is. My go-to is shitake and oyster mushrooms marinated in the spiced soy sauce, cooking the rice in the water the mushrooms were rehydrated in, and cracking an egg in after the rice was done! I'm already looking forward to making more variations of this! I've had some berkshire pork sausages that worked with my base version *really* well and I'm definitely gonna try this again with lap cheong and marinated pork belly! Beyond bok choy, what other vegetables do you think would work well in this?

I’m trying it with your method but with two cups of rice in a larger Korean clay pot. One trip up I’ve already encountered is after the first 25 mins, my rice was nowhere near done. I’m assuming due to the larger clay pot and 2X the rice and water. It’s gone back in for another 20 mins. I am miffed at you for not just including the ingredients and steps for the spiced soy sauce in the video description :)
