Cooked in Claypot with Juicy meat and egg
Crispy Claypot rice is a delicious dish made with chicken, prawns, egg, and ginger and garlic for extra flavor. The rice cooks in a pot until it forms a crispy layer at the bottom, while the chicken and prawns stay tender and juicy, and the egg adds richness. To make it even better, I added a sauce made from soy sauce, lime, honey, green onions, chili flakes, and roasted sesame. This sauce brings a perfect balance of tangy, sweet, and spicy flavors, with the sesame and chili flakes adding a nice crunch and heat. Every bite is a mix of soft, crispy, and flavorful textures, making it a truly satisfying meal.
Crispy claypot rice is a classic Cantonese dish, often eaten in the winter. The name comes from how it’s cooked with rice, meat, and vegetables in one pot. It’s a traditional food from Southern China and is very popular in Hong Kong.
