Rice Partially Cooked With Chicken And Chinese Sausages Recipes

CHICKEN AND CHINESE SAUSAGE RICE HOT POT

Steps:

• Combine the chicken, soy, sugar, sesame oil, scallions, cornstarch, ginger and sausage and let marinate refrigerated for at least 15 minutes.
• In a clay pot (or saucepan), combine the rice, salt and oil. On high heat, saute briefly then add the stock to Fuji (1 1/4 inches above the rice). Bring to a boil then reduce to medium heat and simmer until the stock has evaporated to the level of the rice. Add the chicken mixture, cover and cook in a preheated 350 degree F oven for 12 to 15 minutes. Stir well, cover, turn heat on high for only 1 minute then reduce heat to very low. Cook for an additional 10 minutes, then turn heat off. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.
• Plating: Serve rice pot family style with rice bowls and chopsticks.

RICE-PARTIALLY COOKED, WITH CHINESE SAUSAGES II

Steps:

• TOPPING:Dice sausages, mushrooms and shrimp. RICE:1. Wash rice thoroughly (see HOW-TO, _Rice: To wash), then spread evenly along the bottom of a saucepan. 2. Add the desired quantity of cold water for each cup of rice. (Let rice and water sit covered in pan for 30 minutes before cooking. This softens the rice, but can be omitted.) 3. Bring rice to a boil over 3/4 flame. Boil covered 3 minutes. Reduce flame to 1/2. Boil 2 minutes more, or until most of the liquid is absorbed. (At this point, before the water is completely absorbed, some cooks stir the rice gently from the bottom up so that it will cook more evenly and have less tendency to burn on the bottom. If some rice sticks to the sides of the pot during this stirring, just scrape it down.) 4. Arrange topping over rice and cook, covered, over low heat until rice is done (15 to 20 minutes). Let stand, covered, 10 to 15 minutes more. Mix well before serving. NOTE: The topping is cooked as the rice itself steams. Both rice and topping may be stirred together after, but not during, cooking. The rice will stick to the bottom of the pan if stirred too soon. VARIATION: * For the regular rice, you may substitute glutinous rice.The Thousand Recipe Chinese Cookbook. ©1994 by Gloria Bley Miller.
