• 5 Scallions-thinly sliced, Quail eggs/Eggs-boiled & peeled

• 1 tsp Oyster sauce, ground Black pepper, Vegetable oil
• Pork/Beef/Chicken/Fish floss

 

Instructions

• Wash sticky rice 2 times. Soak in water for 1-4 hours; drain. Marinate chicken with soy sauce, oyster sauce, ¼ tsp salt & black pepper for ~ 20 minutes. Soak dried shrimp in hot water for 15 minutes to re-hydrated; rinse in cool water & drain. Set it all aside.
• Soak dried shiitake/mixed mushrooms in hot water for 5-7 minutes. Remove from the water & squeeze out excess water. Slice mushroom into strips & set it aside. Save mushroom water for cooking the rice later. Meanwhile, slice sausages into thin strips; set it aside.
• In a pan, sautè chicken with some vegetable oil until it’s cooked. Add in garlic & eggs. Cook just until the garlic turn golden. Remove from the pan & set it aside. If you’re using normal eggs, half the eggs afterwards. Alternatively, instead of boiling the eggs, you can also make thin omelettes & then slice it into thin strips (don’t put it with the chicken on pan)
• In the same pan, turn the heat to medium-high & add in ½ tbsp vegetable oil. Pan fry shrimp for 3-4 minutes (until lightly toasted). Remove from the pan & set it aside.
• Put sticky rice in the rice cooker. Add in ½ tsp of salt, chicken stock powder, dark soy sauce, 2 tsp vegetable oil & pandan leaf. Pour in mushroom water & add enough water to cook the rice. Stir to combine it well. Put the mushroom & sausage on top, then cook rice. After it cooked, open up the rice cooker top; put in sliced chicken & shrimp. Mix everything together to combine the flavour; close the rice cooker top & cook again for another 5-8 minutes. Fluff the rice well.
• Meanwhile, preheat vegetable oil in a pan over medium heat. Add in scallions, ¼ tsp salt & a pinch of sugar. Stir & cook it for ~ 30 seconds. Remove from the heat & set it aside.
• Put sticky rice in serving plates/bowls. Arrange eggs on top. Sprinkle with peanuts, meat floss, fried shallots & the scallions in oil. Serve while it’s hot.
