clay pot rice

Rice in earthenware

Clay pot rice is a Cantonese dish of rice cooked in a clay pot over high heat, typically topped with meat, Chinese sausage, or other ingredients.

The clay retains heat and creates a prized layer of crispy, slightly charred rice at the bottom called *guo ba*.

Soy sauce is traditionally drizzled over just before serving: We ordered clay pot rice with preserved meat and bok choy.
