Postopek

Korak za korakom

1
Combine the rinsed jasmine rice and water in a large pot. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to low.
Približno 10 min
Kuharjeva opomba: Soaking the rice for 30 minutes before cooking can help it break down faster.
2
Add the pork shoulder and sliced ginger to the pot. Stir well to combine.

Cover the pot and simmer for 90 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom. The rice should break down into a thick porridge.
