Hainanese Chicken Rice Cooker Recipe

Here is an easy way to make our favourite chicken rice, using just a rice cooker and easily found ingredients in most supermarkets. 

Start with blitzing 3 shallots, 2 cloves garlic and 6 or 8 slices ginger, basically equal portions of everything into a rempah paste. This is the key to getting your rice fragrant. Then lightly fry in oil in a pan for a few minutes until they are golden and aromatic. Trust me, your kitchen will smell like an old school Hainanese chicken rice stall.
