Roasted One-Pot Rice is a rich, flavorful traditional dish that combines the savory taste of Chinese sausage, tender rice, and aromatic mushrooms. Whether it’s for a family gathering or a get-together with friends, this dish is sure to be a crowd-pleaser. Today, I’m sharing an easy-to-follow recipe for making this delicious claypot rice right at home!

Ingredients:

• Rice
• Water
• Shiitake mushrooms
• Chinese sausage (lap Cheong)
• Eggs
• Vegetables (choose according to personal preference)
• Claypot rice sauce

Instructions:

Step 1: Soak the rice
Begin by soaking the rice for about 30 minutes. This allows the rice to absorb some water, making it fluffier and softer when cooked.

Step 2: Prepare the claypot
Next, lightly brush the bottom of your claypot with oil to prevent the rice from sticking to the pot while cooking.

Step 3: Add rice and water
Put the soaked rice into the claypot and add enough water to just cover the rice by about 1 cm. This ensures that the rice cooks perfectly and absorbs the right amount of moisture.

Step 4: Bring to a boil
Place the claypot on the stove over high heat. Once the water starts to boil, reduce the heat to low and cook for 10 minutes. This step helps the rice absorb the water evenly.

Step 5: Add toppings
Then, layer the Chinese sausage, shiitake mushrooms, eggs, and any vegetables you like on top of the rice. To enhance the flavor, pour in a packet of claypot rice sauce, which will infuse the dish with a savory, rich taste.

Step 6: Steam
Cover the claypot and let it steam for an additional 5 minutes. This will allow the ingredients to meld together and the rice to finish cooking.
