The traditional Cantonese Claypot Rice is a complete all-in feast, think of it as the Cantonese version of a one-pot meal just for you. Fantaste knows their claypot rice. And they do it well. With fifteen variants to choose from, Fantaste has a claypot with your name on it. Bestsellers like the Pork Belly Stir-Fried Long Beans (P 280) combine juicy slabs of pork with beans and egg over rice...
...while the Mushroom and Chicken (P 260) offers juicy, mildly sweet flavors with the chicken and earthy notes from the mushrooms for a lighter yet equally satisfying option capped by the egg.
If you want more chicken, go for Fantaste's other bestseller, the Chicken Drumstick (P 280) draped in a thick and sweet glaze over rice.
The Eggplant with Minced Pork (P 240) features the classic combination of pork and eggplant with a sweet and savory sauce over rice. The layering of different ingredients on rice make for a hefty meal, weaving a variety of flavors all in one pot. And that's the beauty of claypot rice, where you can enjoy all the different flavors with each spoonful.
Pair your claypot rice meal with tasty sides like the Pork Stomach with Chicken Soup (P 150) and the sour, mildly spicy Black Fungus (P 30) topped with fresh chili. Other comforting soup and cold side dish options include the Coconut with Chicken Soup (P 150), Duck Soup (P 150), Sauce Radish (P 20) and Kelp Silk (P 20).
For the first year anniversary of Fantaste, four new claypot variants are rolled out for even more tasty options...
...starting with the Braised Beef Brisket (P 340) with fork-tender beef and melt-in-your-mouth tendon for a solid beefy punch. The egg and and the sauce of the beef combine for a savory richness, tempered by the bright notes of the fresh spring onions. This is easily one of my personal favorites at Fantaste.
