Sticky Rice in Lotus Leaf
Sticky Rice in Lotus Leaf by Cantonese is "Lo Mai Gai" and by mandarin is "Nuo Mi Ji". You can also pronounce it as "Nor My Guy", and then remember this interesting name.It is a kind of southern Chinese food, especially in Guangdong Province and loved by Cantonese.
Nor My Guy contains glutinous rice filled with chicken, Chinese mushrooms, Chinese sausage and sometimes dried shrimp. The ball of rice is then wrapped in a dried lotus leaf and steamed. Half the fun of eating Nor My Guy is hoping to find the goodies in the middle of this grapefruit-sized lotus leaf-wrapped parcel. While it cooks, the sticky rice takes the delicate flavour of the lotus leaf. The aroma of the Nor My Guy will be incomparable. This dish sia hands-down a kiddy fave.
