Sticky Rice Dinner

Sticky rice should be well rinsed and I like to sit it in water on the counter for a couple of hours. I used 2CUPS rice.
Banana leaves (used these so my bamboo steamer stays clean and holds the food together-you should be able to purchase these cheap at your local Asian store) lay out a couple of layers down. I used 2 steamer trays.

1bokchoy each
1/2 a mushroom each thinly sliced
2 shrimps each
2chicken dumplings each
4-5thinly sliced pork each person
Sliced green onions
Beat eggs
You can put whatever meat, fish and or vegetable you prefer in. This is the stuff we like.
I used a few TBSP of my homemade garlic chili sauce with a couple TBSP of oyster sauce to marinate pork and shrimp.

Get a plate that is big enough to cover steamer trays, remove top banana leaf piece. Lay plate down, and flip. It should slide right out! Peel away bottom layer of banana leave. Look at that?!
Aloe Vera

It’s dry in Alberta, I find it provides the best hydration. Excellent for the scalp, dry skin and gives an awesome shine!

In Alberta we have a lot of international markets, grocery stores. We prefer these over the big name stores, excellent deals and good selection! Best of all, can’t beat the prices!
