Yam Rice
Yam rice (or taro rice) is one of my favorite one pot meals when I’m craving something hearty and comforting. It’s so easy to prepare in a rice cooker, and the result is a flavorful, homey dish that everyone enjoys!

Instructions
- Measure the rice using the small cup that comes with your electric rice cooker. Transfer the rice into the cooker, then wash and rinse it with water as you would for regular steamed rice. Drain the water and set the rice aside.
- Heat a wok or skillet and add the oil. Stir-fry the shallots and garlic until aromatic. Add the pork (or chicken), mushrooms, and dried shrimp, stirring until the meat changes color. Use a spatula to break up the ground pork or chicken into small pieces. Add water to the wok, then add the yam pieces.
- Add all the seasonings and bring the mixture to a boil. Add the rice to the wok or skillet and stir a few times to combine. Transfer everything to the rice cooker and cook as you would for steamed rice.
- When the rice is cooked, use a rice scoop to stir the yam rice and fluff it up. Serve immediately, topped with fried shallot crisps and chopped scallions.
