Pumpkin Rice with Roast Chicken

This is the first cooking for the year. After having to eat bread and take-out for most of the weekend, it's time to take a break from the outside food, I finally decided to try one of the recipe by my unofficial cooking sifu, PreciousPea. Check out her 'Pea's 6 Treasure Pumpkin Rice' here.


The ingredients: pumpkin, mushrooms, dried shrimps and chinese sausage


If you can't live without meat like me: add in some roast chicken


Stir-fry the pumpkin, mushrooms with garlic and shallots


Pour the rice in and stir till fragrant (not cook) and add in 1 teaspoon of salt


Scoop it up and put in the rice cooker and add in the appropriate amount of water


Saute the chopped dried shrimp and chinese sausage and put one side. When the rice is cooked, put in the roast chicken (sliced) and the dried shrimp and chinese sausage on top of the rice. Close the lid for 5 mins for the flavour to blend with the rice.


Stir it gently as the pumpkin is easily mashed. The sweetness of pumpkin compliments well with the rest of the ingredients.

Thanks PreciousPea for the recipe :)

PP: I think I put in too much water, the rice a bit soft and stick together not fluffy enough ^^
