Steamed Glutinious Rice With Mixed Mushrooms

This is yet another simple glutinous rice meal which I have not touch on, since I moved to my current place. I used to make this steam glutinous rice with chicken and mushrooms; we called them as "Loh Mai Kai" (糯米鸡), but since I have change my diet, I have switched the ingredients with just using mixed mushrooms... so here's presenting my invention of "Loh Mai Gu" (糯米菇)... ^o*

I would say this is easy to make and it can be taken as a light meal, due to the amount and the used of glutinous rice as the main ingredients. Give it a try... ...

1. Stir-fry diced Chinese mushrooms with sesame oil. After 2 mins. add in enoki mushrooms, vegetarian minced meatless and diced button mushrooms follow by veg. mushroom sauce and five spice powder. Add water just to cover the ingredients and mixed well. Simmer for 3mins. Lastly add some pepper to taste. Set aside to cool when cooked.

2. Get ready the pre-soaked glutinous rice. Assemble the cooked mixed mushrooms ingredients onto small bowls and topped with glutinous rice until 3/4 or just cover the edge of the bowls.

3. Set bowls to stand on a large pot and steam on medium heat.

4. Steam for approx. 1 to 2 hrs or until glutinous rice are soft.

5. Turn bowl over to rest on plate, serve hot.

Ingredients
Approx. 600g of glutinous rice (soak overnight and then drained off the water)
8 medium size Chinese mushrooms (soak till soft and diced)
1 big bundle of enoki mushrooms (lightly wash and cut to the size of 1cm)
4 button mushrooms (diced)
1 small block of vegetarian minced meatless (optional)
2 tbsp vegetarian mushroom sauce
1 tbsp 5 spice powder
some water
some pepper

Remarks: You may add as many type of mushrooms as you prefer. Adjust the level of saltiness as you prefer with a little Chinese light and dark soy sauce.
