I meant to post this a while ago but was distracted. This dish was made with the rest of the leftover meat from my 8-hr braised pork. I love flavoured rice and so I decided to use the remaining leftovers for this.
It was very flavourful and delicious on its own but it was awesome with the belacan chili made by Jade's (our flatmate) mum. Her belacan chili is really delicious and I eat it with almost everything now. I'm glad we still have 4 more packets. THANK YOU AUNTY!!!

Haha my favourite type of dish - rice with meat! I'm just a simple boy at heart. I can easily imagine a roadside hawker selling this in Malaysia.
Look so delicious, that I wish I can just eat the screen right now.
Cheers,

It's amazing that 'leftovers' can turn into something so delicious!
What a pretty presentation and a pretty photo!
Yay for leftovers! Our fave is seeing those 'lil mushrooms peeking out.
Looks delicious. Your sambal chili looks like sambal hae bee (dried shrimps). Love those!
That's a great way to use your meat/sauce leftovers! Looks delicious!
This looks go good. I agree with 5-star, what a wonderful way to reuse leftover sauce! I am a big fan of that.
Yes I agree! A great use of leftovers!
I see your aunty give you sambal hei bee!! that thingy is heaven!! the best any rice to eat with sambal hei bee!!
This looks absolutely delicious. Am planning to try claypot rice one weekend.
I love leftovers, I aways think they taste better that way. I think it's because we usually mix it with other leftovers and create a new and wonderful flavorful dish.
Will you be posting the belacan chili recipe? I'm dying to know what it tastes like. And of course the rice looks delicious too :-)
Beautiful dish, the colors just make it pop!
I love one pot dishes like these ... a real time saver and very yummy too :D
Hahaha, another coincedent after pumpkin, and this time we both made use of leftovers. I love flavored rice. I have a post called chinese risotto. Also I have made a braised pork too, cha siu for japanese ramen : ), now finishing the last 2 pieces for lunch.
one pot meals are always great! looks delicious!
I wish I had some homemade belacan chili! Looks great.
I need to look for these sauces and pastes mentioned in your posts (belacan, kecap manis, sambals, bean paste, etc.) Rice and leftovers are a perfect tasty pairing!
I love one pot rice dishes, they are always so comforting and delicious, this look so yummy.
I love rice dishes, thanks for sharing!
Nice bit of ginger in there, bet it tastes great! Lovely dish.
One pot dishes are great and I love the sound of this one!
I printed this one and want to add it to the ever lengthing list of new recipes to try. Looks great.
The rice looks so tasty!
gosh they look insanely good! :)
Great photos! That looks mouth wateringly delicious! I'm curious, what is belacan chili?
Your braised pork from your other post sounds delicious and with this rice it sounds doubly delicious. I do have most of the ingredients on hand including the kecap manis.
Oh my. Your bottom photo has me craving rice! Lovely, just lovely.
boy, if i got a nickel every time i got distracted, i'd be a rich lady. :)
great rice!
Thank you all for your lovely comments =)
Little Corner of Mine: I used to call these homemade chili belacan chili. People call it hae bee hiam. I guess you can call it sambal hae bee too!
dp: I don't have the recipe for the chili. I will try to ask for it!
Marc:In Malaysia, a lot of families seem to have their own 'secret recipe' of chili made out of dried shrimps, most Chinese refer it as hae bee hiam (chili shrimp floss). While I just call them belacan chili, maybe because of the strong dried shrimp taste.
Belacan is actually shrimp paste which is widely used in Malay cooking. They normally come in blocks and you can get them from oriental supermarkets. We normally use it for sambal belacan where you pound together chili, belacan and other ingredients to make a dip or as an accompaniment to rice. Another popular dish is belacan kangkung, which is morning glory stir fried with belacan. Not to forget belacan fried rice!
Wow, this is using leftovers? I always associate leftovers with a bit of a mish mash dish but not this. Great stuff!
Nice job turning leftovers into this wonderful rice!
That looks delicious!! I bet it was amazing with the leftover pork.
I was so hungry last night, and this is exactly the kind of food I was craving for (I had to settle for a banana instead). Lovely!
That is a tasty looking rice and a nice way to ejoy the leftovers.
me too, crazy for flavored rice, yours is so pretty!
Throw in some Chinese wax meat or chinese sausages (Lap Cheong). It should make the rice more tasty.
Wow, your delectable mound of rice and wispy meat looks amazing. And I want an aunt like that!
What a clever way to prepare rice. It looks so savory! Your rice has me drooling.
One pot dishes are my favorite. And to use leftovers makes it even better!!
Oh my lawd, belacan AND 8-hr braised pork? This dish is TO DIE FOR. Mmmm!
Now that's my kind of rice! It looks delicious.
I like one pot dish like this. I cook the similar dish too, but using chicken meat.
mmMMMmm yeah waxed duck and lap cheong would've been awesome! But there actually quite a lot of pork already so we didn't want to add any extra meat/fat/protein.
