  1. Fry shallots in oil till golden brown. Remove fried shallots and set aside. Remove oil separately into a bowl.

  2. Bring a pot of water to boil and add belly pork. As the water starts reboiling, remove scum from surface till no more scum appears. Remove pork and allow to cool. Cut the pork into small pieces (just like the mushroom strips), retaining the fat.

  3. Heat up 2 tablespoons of the shallot oil. Add pre-soaked mushrooms and stir fry for 2 minutes. Add pre-soaked dried prawns. Continue stir-frying for another minute or so till aromatic.

  4. Add belly pork strips and stir well for about a minute. Next, add rice and continue stirring well whilst adding seasoning. Add the water previously used to soak mushrooms and dried prawns. Once rice is evenly coated with seasoning, remove and place into a rice cooker.

  5. Add more water to cover rice mixture completely with about 1 cm above the surface of the rice. Switch on the rice cooker. Once rice starts to boil, add pre-fried yam and cover. Allow it to cook till done.

  6. If you are cooking in the pot / wok, add water to cover the rice mixture, reduce heat to low, cover and allow it to cook slowly, stirring occasionally to prevent burning. Cook till rice is fully cooked.

  7. Serve the Yam Rice with a sprinkle of fried shallots and scallions / spring onions.
