We have been travelling since 7 o'clock in the morning from Yangshou, with a short stop at Heping. We arrived at Ping An village before 1 o'clock in the afternoon tired and very hungry. When the tour guide suggested we stop for lunch before we head to the rice terraces, we could not have been more happy.
And this is our reward.
The most amazing rice cooked inside a fresh bamboo tube! The rice has bits of veggies, sweet potato and Chinese sausage ( lap cheong). It's very chewy.
We ate the rice with chives with egg...
..stir-fried celery with bits of pork..
..and braised pumpkin with green onions.
Perhaps I was just so hungry but these were the sweetest veggies I have had in a long time. The lunch alone was worth the trip! (OK, maybe not).
