Fried glutinous rice in lotus leave

From saturday i had some leftover glutinous rice... and i don't like wasting good food away, so sunday supper i put on my creative cooking cap with a help of the internet and decided to make fried glutinous rice and use the leftover lotus leave to steam.



First resteamed the rice for 20mins.  Whilst steaming, i used hot water soak the dried chinese mushroom, and dried shrimps.  Fine chopped the leftover chinese cured sausage, spring onions, ginger and once the mushroom is soft i fine-chopped that too. I also wash and cleaned the dried shrimps.

Then like making fried rice, in a non-stick pan little oil, first in the dried shrimp, then add sausage & mushroom, then scoop the rice into the pan.... give it a good stir, add some light soya sauce then throw in the spring onions, another stir and put in the bowl to serve. 



For added flavour, and because i had time..... in a small non-stick pan and made sheet of scramble egg.

Then on 3 sheets of lotus leaves - first place the egg, then scoop the rice on top then wrapped it tightly into a parcel.





Return it into the steamer for 25mins. 




Its time for dinner. 




Tip:  after glutinous rice - remember drink plenty of green tea to aid digestion.
