Sweet Rice

There are two kinds of sweet rice--long grain and short grain--like 'normal' rice. I think the only worthwhile one is the short grain one, although Thai people would strong disagree. Here I sautéed some Chinese sausages, cured pork belly, shiitake, dry scallops and ginger for a little bit before adding the rice and water. Brought it to a boil and then turn the heat to low and cooked cover until the rice is done. A little cilantro was added at the last instance. It was windy, cold and snowing outside, this is just the thing to warm the body and soul.
