Claypot Chicken Rice

Chinese claypot chicken rice is best eaten on a cold and rainy day. The aroma wafting up my nostril from the stall is simply too hard for me to resist. It’s one of the best tasting claypot chicken rice stalls around my area. We do have a few but i prefer the one here at Ding Hao Foodcourt. We do go there ever so often.

The only thing i dont like about the stall is the man cooking the claypot chicken rice. I’m here to give him business and yet, he never even smile. Oh, wateva. I’m here to eat, not to look at his face, lol. Hubby doesnt like it very much as he says it’s carcinogenic food. Yeah, i know. But i only ever eat claypot chicken rice like once or twice a year. Wont send me to hell so soon.h

So, what’s in the chinese claypot? We get rice, of course. A few pieces of chicken thigh, chinese pork sausage and a tiny piece of salted kurau fish. Can you see it? It’s right in the middle of the claypot, a little bit to the right with the blackish bit resting on a piece of chicken, above the chinese sausage. Am i being clear here? That’s the secret ingredient that’s making the claypot chicken rice so fragrant.

Do you like to eat claypot chicken rice? I have a good claypot chicken rice recipe. Let me go dig out my MIL’s recipe book and ask her how to make it when she wakes up. Will post the claypot chicken recipe up later on. Meanwhile, go drool over the picture of my yummilicious claypot chicken rice first, ya. Can you smell it yet? Oh, go ahead and hate me :p
