Ingredients
- 2 c. black rice
- 1 lt water
- 1 x star anise
- 2 x cinnamon sticks
- 12 x oysters
- 1/4 c. plain flour plastic wrap
- 300 gm japanese noodles
- 2 kg beetroot
- 500 ml vinegar
- 2 x star anise
- 3 x chilli oil
- 1 lt water
- 1 Tbsp. rice wine vinegar
- 1 Tbsp. mirin
- 1 Tbsp. light soy
- 1 Tbsp. sesame oil
- 1 Tbsp. balsamic vinegar
Directions
- Soak the rice overnight, then place the water and rice, with the star anise and cinnamon sticks in a pot over medium heat, stirring constantly till cooked. The rice should become glutinous and sticky. Lay out on a tray and cold.
- On a small piece of plastic wrap press out rice to 1/2cm thick. It is important not to have the rice too thick.
- Take the oyster out of its shell and coat in flour, and place onto rice.
- Bring the ends of the plastic together and wind till it forms a ball.
- Refrigerateovernight, and remove the plastic when set.
- Fry in a preheated deep fryer at 180C till rice is crispy.
- Noodles:Boil the noodles in some water till cooked. Drain and pour a little oil over the top. (The oil helps the noodles take on the beetroot colour.)
- Place the beetroot in water, with some star anise, vinegar and chilli and allow to boil for a few min.
- Remove the beetroot and place the noodles in the beetroot infused water, to allow it to take on the colour and flavours of the water. Drain and set aside.
- (For even better results you could soak the noodles in the liquid from a can of beetroot, this is much easier.)
- For The Dressing:Mix ingredients well.
- To Assemble:Place a bed of noodles on a plate, coat the rice balls in the dressing and assemble them in a oyster shell on top of the noodles. Garnish with some fresh coriander leaves.
