Char siew rice 叉燒飯

It has been over 50 years since I had char siew rice and lately I kept thinking of the food that I had in my childhood. This dish was a treat that we used to get when we were young for good results in school. 

Ingredients

Char siew

Fried shallots

Put 1 tbsp oil used for frying the shallots into the rice in the rice cooker

Add 2 tbsp fried shallots into the cooked rice

Mix thoroughly

Put a layer of char siew into the bowl

Spoon the cooked rice on top of the char siew and press it down tightly

Place the prepared into the steamer

Cover and steam for 10 minutes

Remove and let it cool down a little

Place a plate over the rice

Turn the plate over and remove the bowl

Drizzle some of the char siew sauce over the char siew and rice  

Serve with stir fried vegetables
