Instructions
Step 1
Wash the Chinese kale and cut into sections. Blanch in boiling water, then remove and soak in cold water to cool.
Step 2
Wash the rice, place in a claypot with 1 cup of water and soak for 20 minutes. Cover, bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to low heat and simmer until cooked.
Step 3
Wash the sausage and cured pork belly, evenly coat with seasoning (1), and arrange on top of the cooked rice. Bring to a simmer over low heat, turn off the heat, cover, and let steam until cooked. Remove the sausage and cured pork belly, slice thinly, and arrange back on top of the rice.
Step 4
Heat 1 tbsp of oil in a pan, add the Chinese kale and stir-fry briefly. Add seasoning (2) to mix well, then place on top of the rice. Drizzle seasoning (3) over, cover the pot, and simmer for about 5 more minutes before serving.
