First recipe of the year from my kitchen! 🎉 Claypot rice is his favorite dish I make, I’m looking to experiment with more variations this year. Stay tuned 👀 Here’s the recipe for Claypot Rice with Black Bean Spare Ribs: Ingredients: • 1 cup rice • 1 cup hot water • 500g pork spare ribs • 1 tbsp Chinese black bean paste • 2 tbsp light soy sauce • 1 tbsp oyster sauce • 1 tsp dark soy sauce • 1/2 tsp sesame oil • 1/2 tsp white pepper • 1 tbsp cornstarch • 1 Thai chili (optional) • 4-5 garlic cloves (minced) • Scallion (for garnish) Instructions: 1️⃣ Wash and soak rice for 1 hour. 2️⃣ Cut spare ribs into bite-sized pieces, rinse, and marinate with soy sauces, sesame oil, black bean paste, white pepper, cornstarch, Thai chili, and garlic. Let it rest in the fridge for 30+ minutes. 3️⃣ Heat oil in the claypot, coat the rice with it, and add hot water. Simmer on medium-low with the lid on for 5 minutes. 4️⃣ Reduce heat to low, make small holes in the rice, and add the marinated spare ribs. Cover and cook for 10 minutes. 5️⃣ Drizzle neutral oil around the pot’s edges and rotate it over medium low heat for 10-12 minutes to crisp up the bottom rice. 6️⃣ Double check the spare ribs are cooked through. Garnish the dish with chopped scallion. Traditionally, you can make a sweet soy sauce to further season the rice but I find this recipe good without it but feel free to drizzle some soy sauce if it’s not salty enough for you!
