Sticky Rice with Pork

Sticky Rice with Pork is a traditional Chinese breakfast dish that combines the chewy texture of glutinous rice with tender, savory pork. This comforting meal is perfect for starting your day with a boost of energy and flavor.

Ingredients

• Glutinous rice - 200 grams
• Pork shoulder, minced - 150 grams
• Soy sauce - 2 tablespoons
• Oyster sauce - 1 tablespoon
• Garlic, minced - 2 cloves
• Ginger, minced - 1 teaspoon
• Green onions, chopped - 2 stalks
• Sesame oil - 1 tablespoon
• White pepper - 1/2 teaspoon
• Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
• Water - 250 milliliters

Steps

1. Rinse the glutinous rice under cold water until the water runs clear, then soak it in water for at least 4 hours or overnight.
2. In a bowl, mix the minced pork with soy sauce, oyster sauce, garlic, ginger, white pepper, and salt. Let it marinate for 30 minutes.
