Ingredients

  • 2 cups sweet rice (aka glutinous rice) soaked overnight (water level should be 3 inches above rice as rice will expand)

  • 1 tablespoon oyster sauce

  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce

  • 1/4 cup chicken stock

  • 1/4 teaspoon sesame oil

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  • 1/4 cup dried shrimp (soaked in warm water for 15 minutes)

  • 8 dried shiitake mushrooms (soaked in warm water for 15 minutes)

  • 3 Chinese sausage links chopped

  • 1 medium yellow onion diced finely

  • 1 tablespoon rice wine

  • 2 scallions chopped

Directions

  • Boil water in steamer. Drain water from soaked sweet rice and then place in steamer on cheesecloth. Cover and steam for 20 minutes.
  • While rice is steaming, mix in a bowl oyster sauce, soy sauce, sesame oil, chicken stock and salt. Set aside.
  • Heat olive oil in wok over high heat and then add shrimp to stir fry for 1 minute to bring out the flavor. Add the onion, mushrooms, Chinese sausage, and rice wine and stir fry until onions have softened and Chinese sausage is slightly browned.
