Chinese Mustard Green Rice

This is another Chinese-style "all in 1 wok" meal, it takes less than an hour to cook. Fast and easy recipe for rice cook all at once with meat, dried oyster, dried shrimps (hae bee), chinese black mushroom and most important the chinese mustard green (kai-choy). I have slightly modified my mum's way of cooking this pot of rice. As I love my vegetables to be green, I have decided not to boil the vegetable with the rice. Instead, the chinese mustard green is blanched in boiling water with salt and added in the rice once the rice is cooked.

Chinese mustard green comes with a slightly bitter taste and inorder to reduce the bitterness, it has to be blanched with salt. It is a technique to reduce the bitterness. This vegetable has lots of fibre and it is a good intake for our body.
