Don't want to soak rice or worry about smelly pork? I hear you.
Today, I'll share a tasty sticky rice recipe without the pork smell.
No soaking needed. It's quick, soft, and perfectly fluffy.
The meat is savory and absolutely delicious. With just a few steps,
you'll have an amazing pot of sticky rice. Let's head into the kitchen and get started.
I've listed the ingredients at the end of the video.
Let's start with the minced pork. I'm using about 300 to 400 grams of ground pork.
I prefer leaner meat so it's not too greasy. Mince up your shallots and garlic thoroughly.
Add a spoonful of the mix to the meat to marinate. Add half a spoon of seasoning,
sugar, and some pepper. Two spoons of soy sauce and one of oyster sauce.
Mix it all well and let it marinate for half an hour.
I use premium glutinous rice for better texture and aroma.
Rinse the rice a few times until clean, then drain.
Remember, no soaking required. That's the best part of this method.
Now, add the rice into a pan. Add 50 milliliters coconut milk,
200 milliliters water, salt, and turmeric for color. Stir over medium heat, letting the rice
absorb the liquid gradually. Once the liquid is absorbed and the grains look glossy, it's ready.
Pre-cooking ensures soft, fluffy rice without the need for soaking.
Once stirred, transfer the rice to a steamer and spread it evenly.
Now, steam it for about half an hour. Now, heat another pan with oil and saute
the remaining minced shallots. Add the minced pork and stir-fry over medium heat,
breaking it up so it doesn't clump. Once cooked, take it off the heat
immediately so the meat doesn't dry out. Chop the green onions into a bowl and pour
hot oil over them for scallion oil. This scallion oil makes the sticky rice smell amazing.
The sticky rice has steamed long enough, let's check it.
It's soft and fluffy, with a lovely coconut aroma.
Minutes are up, the rice is ready, let's serve it on a platter.
Now, add the sauteed minced pork into the rice.
Stir well so the pork and rice are perfectly combined.
Cover the lid and steam for another 8 minutes.
A quick tip, don't oversteam once the meat is in, or it loses its sweetness.
The rice gets mushy easily, just a few minutes is plenty.
This minced pork sticky rice smells delicious. The rice is soft and savory with the meat,
so satisfying. Drizzle a bit more scallion oil on top.
Sprinkle some crispy fried shallots to make it even more tempting.
Best served hot for breakfast, lunch, or a quick snack on the go.
Golden grains, savory pork, and fragrant, creamy scallion oil.
It's easy and requires no soaking, perfect for your busy days.
Good luck with the recipe, and thanks for watching.
Goodbye and see you next time.
