Stereotypical Chinese like "Lau" have no balls, because they don't even dare to call this "Bao Zai Fan" or "BaoZai rice". Instead, they submit to translating the entire name into the common words of another language, and call it "clay pot rice", cheapening its status and cheapening themselves.

You can't stop having no balls. Coreans never cheapen their "Bibimbop" by translating it to "Stone Pot Rice". But typical Chinese like you feel that you have to translate your product into the cheap English name of "Clay Pot Rice". Sad. LMAO!

I'm from Italy and as I didn't have a clay pot, I made it in my terracotta dish instead. All I will say is this. Without a shadow of a doubt, THE BEST rice dish I've ever made in my entire life. My parents and sisters demolished the entire serving and now want me to make it again next weekend. The terracotta was able to recreate the crunchy bottom and I used a kitchen flame thrower to scorch the sides whilst it was cooking away. What we cannot get over is just how succulent the chicken is. The marinade is clearly magical because my dad said it was the most succulent chicken he'd ever had in his whole life. We just made it with shiitake mushrooms and chicken thighs on the bone. I made the sauce to pour onto the dish once cooked but it didn't even need it. It was already crunchy on bottom but super flavourful and seasoned throughout. Thank you for the detailed tutorial. Just wonderful.

Terracotta clay is denser clay, higher quality earthenware. Can be used to cook long time in a hot oven . Chinese Claypot is a crude cookware invented for by peasant farmers. These claypots don’t last long but they don’t cost much in the wet market, either. Excellent idea you used a kitchen flame thrower. Instead of the chef’s traditional farmer way….. Totally 21st century.👌😂

I love how humble and casual Daddy Lau is in his style of cooking and that it can be adapted to western utensils. It’s an attitude that a lot of his generation have because they understand the difficulties of moving to a country with a completely different culture but still wanting to retain some traditions of their own cultural heritage. I recognise a lot of the food he cooks as something I grew up eating a lot of the dishes he cooks so quite happy to see all my favourites.

One of my favourites! Sometimes I'll cook this in a rice cooker. Strangely, I've had excellent results cooking this in a nonstick wok on an induction stove. Start out as usual. Get the rice up to the boiling point, add some oil around the sides of the wok, and cook the dish for quite a long time (20+ minutes) on quite a low heat (on my induction stove, the second-lowest heat). This will give a pretty good crust, but if you really want it crispy, add more oil, and finish off at a higher heat for 5 minutes or so.

This brings back so many bitter sweet memories of my late grandmother.. She used to make this EVERYDAY for me for lunch and we would share a pot together. I would walk home from school for lunch and it is one thing that will NEVER get sick of eating.. She would use chicken, Chinese sausage, and preserved pork belly and the crispy rice would ALWAYS be perfect. She would scrape the crispy rice off the pot and sprinkle a little bit of salt over it and I would add some of the Chinese sausage to it and create a crispy rice ball..!! SOOOO GOOD>..! I miss that so much. Eating clay pot rice in restaurants isn't the same. It's just not as good for whatever reason..
