Baked Rice is a classic dish in Hong Kong, the most popular is Baked Fried Rice with Pork Chops. It’s a bed of rice top with meat, vegetable and cheese, and baked until the cheese melted. I had my first taste of Baked Rice in Hong Kong style Restaurant Kim Gary 5 years ago.

When I stumbled upon Meat Doria recipe on Just One Cookbook, I was excited to learn that baked rice in Japan is called Doria. I love browsing on Just One Cookbook, the homecook Japanese food is so DELICIOUS and Japanese cuisine is one of my favourite! The dishes are easy, but requires some Japanese sauces/ ingredients. The Meat Doria recipe is something I can easily whipped up Baked Rice with the ingredients in my kitchen.

With the ingredients I have in my kitchen, I tweeked the recipe. And of course using the Homemade Tomato Sauce in my previous post. For a Japanese-style Meat Doria, get the recipe from Just One Cookbook.

Today is Day 12th of October Unprocessed Challenge. It was more challenging that I thought, especially with eating out and usage of seasoning sauces. Over these 12 days, I managed to achieve almost 90% unprocessed and I’m proud of myself. I will be away tomorrow until next Tuesday and I will try my best to continue this challenge. See you next week and have a great weekend!

5. Add wine and reduce heat to medium low and simmer (without a lid) until most liquid is evaporated.
6. Add salt and pepper to taste. (Remember to under season the sauce, because the cheese will be quite salty) 
   

Assembling Baked Rice

2. Sprinkle 2 kinds of cheese on top.
3. Cook in the oven or toaster oven until cheese is all melted and slightly burnt. 
   

Notes

i) Remember to under season the meat sauce, because the cheese will be quite salty. I forgot about that and season the sauce to my usual palate, and the whole dish was a bit too salty when eat with the cheese. ii) I wanted the cheese to be mostly burnt and left the dish in the oven for more than 30 minutes. The cheese ended up harden instead of melted
