Steamed Savoury Rice [Kiam P'ng]

A very simple savoury rice dish that goes well with a bowl of hot soup [vegetables, fishballs or meat/tofu etc] of your choice.
 
Ingredients
[serves 2-3]
1 1/2 cups rice - washed and drain

2-3 dried mushrooms - soaked and diced
2 tbsp dried prawns - washed and drain
50 gm meat - cut thin strips [optional]
2-3 shallots - thinly sliced
2 pips garlic - chopped
1 -2 tbsp oil
2 tbsp light soy sauce
1 tbsp oyster sauce
1/2 tsp dark soy sauce
salt and pepper to taste
enough water to cook rice 
  1. Heat oil in wok to saute shallots and garlic until aromatic.  Add in meat [if using],  mushrooms and dried prawns.  Fry until fragrant, then add in rice and seasoning.
  2. Fry until ingredients are well mixed.   Dish out into a steaming dish.  Add enough water to cook rice [can use a rice cooker]. 
  3. Steam rice for 25-30 minutes.  Rest for 5-10 minutes.  Fluff up rice and serve with sambal belacan/sliced red chillies in soy sauce, blanched vegetables or soup.
