Description
This super easy Chinese pork rib rice bowl recipe is perfect for the lazy cook.
This is my secret weapon when I don’t want to spend too much time in the kitchen. Because all I have to do is add the ingredients and seasoning sauce to the rice cooker and press the “cook” button. In this post, I want to share how I made this dish with you.
The type of rib I used is baby back ribs. They are tender, flavorful and a bit meatier than spare ribs. While at the grocery store, you can ask the butcher to cut up the ribs into 2-3 inches bite-sized pieces for you.
To start, I sauteed the pork ribs with a little bit of oil until they were lightly browned.
Besides pork ribs, I also added diced shiitake mushrooms and mixed vegetables for more texture and flavor. After rinsing the white rice, I put all ingredients over the rice in the cooking bowl and placed some ginger and scallion on top.
Next is adding the seasonings. Simply mix soy sauce, oyster sauce, cooking wine and sugar together and pour the sauce over the ingredients.
It’s time to add water. For this dish, to cook 1 cup of jasmine rice, I added only 3/4 cup of water.
Usually, the rice to water ratio is 1:1 when cooking white rice using an electronic rice cooker. Here, the seasoning sauce and water released from the mixed vegetables will make up for the rest of the water needed to cook the rice.
The last step of preparation is using the rice spatula to give everything a gentle stir.
Everything ready! All there is left to do is to press the “cook” button.
After about 20-30 mins, or whenever the setting switches to “keep warm”, let it sit for about five minutes. After a small period to cool down, the dish will be ready to serve. Before transferring to a plate, I’d pick out the green onion and ginger.
To finish this super easy Chinese pork rib rice bowl, I drizzled a few drops of sesame oil and sprinkled some chopped green onion on top.
This time, I also added some blanched Chinese broccoli on the side. It would be perfect if there’s also a fried egg. However, I can’t wait any longer to dig in!
