Instructions

  1. Wash grain rice and then drain.
  2. Wash the pork belly carefully and then cut into thin slices. I make two versions this time so I divide this batch into two bowls. Marinate pork belly with all the marinating ingredients.
  3. Add rice and spices in pan on medium heat until most of the rice grains become slightly brown. Pulverize the rice to powders using food processor or by hand.
  4. Mix the pulverized rice with marinated pork. Lay some fresh leaves or clean gauze and then sweet potato cubs under your bamboo steamer. Then spread the pork slices evenly on sweet potato cubes; steam with middle high fire for around 50 minutes to 1 hour.
  5. Transfer out and garnish some chopped green onions and serve hot!

Notes

  • If you do not eat pork, you can choose beef. Then please extend the steaming time at least to 40 minutes depending on what protein you are using.
