Ingredients
Rice Prep
- 1 1/2 cups cooked rice
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 1/2 cups vegetable oil for frying
Soup
- 8 dried shiitake mushrooms
- 4 ounces chicken breast thinly sliced
- 4 teaspoons water
- 3 teaspoons oyster sauce
- 2 teaspoons cornstarch
- 1/4 lb Shrimp 21/25 size peeled, and deveined
- 2 teaspoons vegetable oil
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1 carrot peeled and thinly sliced
- 2 cups baby bok choy cut into 1-inch pieces
- 4 ounces ham sliced into thin strips (See Note 1)
- 8 cups chicken stock
- 1 teaspoon Shaoxing wine
- 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 cup Snow peas trimmed and cut in half
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper
Instructions
Prepare Rice
- Spread the steamed rice evenly on a baking sheet in a thin layer. Sprinkle rice with salt and let sit overnight (See Note 2), uncovered, on the counter to dry. Alternatively, you can toast the steamed rice in a 325°F oven for 20 minutes or until dried completely.
- Let the baked rice cool, then transfer to a bowl. Set aside.
Soup Prep
- In a bowl soak the dried shiitake mushrooms in 1 cup of hot water for 20 minutes. Be sure to keep them submerged, I place a small plate on top. Once rehydrated, squeeze the water from the mushrooms (reserve that and the mushroom soaking water), trim stems off and discard, and thinly slice caps. Set aside.
- In a small bowl marinate the chicken in the water, oyster sauce and cornstarch. Set aside.
- Bring 4 cups of water to a boil in your wok. Add the chicken and using a spatula, move the chicken in the water for 45 seconds to a minute, or until just cooked and opaque. Remove using a spider strainer or slotted spoon.
- Add the shrimp and cook them for 45 seconds (until opaque). Be sure to not overcook. Remove from wok and set aside. Discard the water and clean the wok.
- In meantime heat cooking oil in a medium saucepan to 350°F over medium-high heat.
- Next, set clean wok over medium heat. Add vegetable oil and stir fry the garlic, carrots, and shiitake mushrooms for 2 minutes and carrots are slightly softened. Add the bok choy, ham and chicken, stir fry 1 minute.
- Pour in the chicken stock, reserved mushroom soaking water, Shaoxing wine and sesame oil. Bring the soup to a simmer. Add the shrimp and and snow peas, stir for 1 more minute.
- Season soup salt and white pepper, stirring through. Transfer the soup to a large serving bowl.
Serving/Fry Rice
- Just before serving, heat cooking oil in a medium saucepan to 350°F over medium-high heat.
- When the oil is hot, add the rice in batches. Deep-fry the rice until puffy and slightly golden brown. Remove using a spider strainer or slotted spoon.
- Immediately slide the crispy rice into the soup for that sizzling effect as the hot oil hits the soup.
Notes
- I use either Canadian ham (pork loin) or Virginia ham from the market deli.
- I prefer to bake the rice, but usually 1-2 days drying uncovered works.
