How to Make Ground Pork Peas And Rice Casserole

  1. Rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Combine the rinsed rice and water in a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan. Bring to a boil over high heat.
  2. Once boiling, reduce heat to low, cover tightly, and simmer for 10 minutes.
  3. After 10 minutes, the surface of the rice should look uneven and slightly cratered. Turn off the heat and let the rice steam, covered, for 5 more minutes.
  4. While the rice simmers, prepare the pork mixture. If using fresh peas, blanch them in boiling water for 2 minutes, then immediately plunge into ice water to stop the cooking process. Drain well and set aside.
  5. Heat the oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground pork and stir-fry for 1 minute, breaking it up with a spatula.
  6. Add the peas (fresh or thawed frozen), soy sauce, oyster sauce, and rice wine to the skillet. Stir-fry for another 2 minutes until the pork is cooked through and the sauce has thickened slightly.
  7. Stir in the sliced green onions.
  8. Gently spoon the pork and pea mixture on top of the cooked rice in the saucepan.
  9. Cover the saucepan and cook over the lowest possible heat for 15 minutes, or until heated through and the flavors have melded.
  10. Serve immediately, drizzling extra oyster sauce over the top if desired. Enjoy!
