Yen Can Cook ~ Rice Cooker Pork Ribs Rice
I believe rice cooker is one of the essential kitchen appliances for any Asian family however it’s not applicable to my family.
Why?
When there’s a family member who is on carbo-less diet and the other two will be arguing who should eat more of that less than one cup of rice cooked, a normal rice cooker doesn’t seem like a necessity. So, all this while I was using a 1.2L mini rice cooker to cook that less-than-one-cup-of-rice for hubby and Sam for dinner.
But I always wanted to buy a “proper” rice cooker because those modern rice cookers’ function is not limited to cook rice only but also support programs for cooking porridge, stewing, baking and steaming which I only need to mix in the ingredients and press a button and stir every now and then for cooking porridge and stewing. There are also many one pot rice cooker meal recipes that I tempted to try too especially when I don’t want to spend too much time in the kitchen. Because all I have to do is add the ingredients and seasoning sauce to the rice cooker and press the “Cook” button.
Today’s super easy pork rib rice bowl recipe which is perfect for the lazy cook.

2 cups jasmine rice
800g-1kg pork ribs

Thumbs up for your presentation, your rice cooker pork ribs rice looks really delicious! Easy to prepare too. My rice cooker is hibernating in the kitchen cupboard. LOL!
PH, I think your rice cooker can retire already, haha! Btw, your Lahling also doesn’t consume rice now?
I love these one-pot rice dishes…and will certainly try this as your look lovely. You even managed to get the crispy rice at the bottom (like claypot chicken rice) but I don’t look forward to scrubbing the pot…lol. You didn’t mention the rice needed any water, so I’m assuming the sauce is enough liquid to cook the rice?
Kris, actually my family don’t like scorched rice too, I cooked this for the sake of showing my readers the outcome. I did mention the liquid for cooking rice in Step 2, the sauce mixture is using to cook the rice. 🙂
Your rice pot looks like a “Wealthy Pot” with so much rich ingredients. I should follow your brilliant idea.
TM, since I’m a greedy person, I like my rice to be loaded with ingredients, so I’ll put as much ingredients as I can to make it more bountiful! LOL
Simple enough to follow and looks so good!
KY, thank you 🙂
