INSTRUCTIONS

Note: See the "Nouc Cham" recipe which is included in this collection.
Place rice in a colander and rinse under cold water. In a large pot
bring water to a boil, and add the rice. Stir once and watch the pot
for about 1 minute to make sure the water doesn't boil over. When the
water starts bubbling, cover and remove from the heat, and drain the
excess water from the pot. Return the pot to the heat, and cook for  20
minutes. Remove the pot from the heat, uncover and fluff with a  fork.
Keep it warm and fluff it again right before serving. In a  small sauce
pan, place the dried shrimp and cold water, and bring to  a boil. Cover
and simmer for 30 minutes. Drain and rinse under cold  water. Dice the
shrimp and place in a bowl and set aside. In a dry  saute pan brown the
chinese sausage until brown on all sides. Remove  and place in the bowl
with the shrimp. In the same saute pan, heat  the 2 teaspoons oil and
fry the pork chops until brown on both sides.  Remove the pork chops
and place in the bowl with the shrimp.  Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons
of oil in a large wok over a high  flame. Add the scallions and quickly
cook for 3 minutes or until  softened. Then add the pork, shrimp, and
sausage, and fry for 1  minute, stirring well, then add the fish sauce,
soy sauce, sugar, and  black pepper. Continue cooking for 3 minutes.
Re-fluff your rice and  place in a large bowl. Add the meat mixture to
the rice, and, mix  together. Press this mixture into a 8-inch round
baking pan. It can  then be turned out onto a serving platter and cut
into 8 wedges.  Sprinkle with chopped green onions and a drizzle of the
Nouc Cham.  This recipe yields 8 servings.  Recipe Source: ESSENCE OF

A Message from our Provider:

“Let Him therefore send and do what He will. By His grace, if we are His, we will face it, bow to it, accept it, and give thanks for it. God’s Providence is always executed in the ‘wisest manner’ possible. We are often unable to see and understand the reasons and causes for specific events in our lives, in the lives of others, or in the history of the world. But our lack of understanding does not prevent us from believing God. #Don Fortner”
