Loh Mai Gai at Home — Dim Sum Glutinous Rice in 5 Minutes

Updated 25 October 2026 · OmniCart Malaysia

Loh mai gai — the dim sum classic of soft glutinous rice packed with savoury chicken and mushroom — is one of those dishes most people only order out. With a ready-to-eat version, you can have it at home in minutes.

What is loh mai gai?

Loh mai gai (糯米鸡) is steamed glutinous rice with chicken, mushroom and a savoury sauce, traditionally wrapped in lotus leaf. It is rich, soft and deeply comforting — a dim sum staple.

The 5-minute way

The easy route is a ready-to-eat pack like Mama Cah Loh Mai Gai — it is already cooked and seasoned, so you just reheat. Steam for the softest result (5–7 minutes), microwave when you are in a hurry (2–3 minutes), or drop the sealed pouch in hot water camping-style. No peti sejuk needed — it is shelf-stable.

Make it a meal

It is filling on its own, but a drizzle of chilli oil, a fried egg on the side, or a cup of hot tea turns it into a proper breakfast or supper.

Is it halal? Where to buy

Yes — halal and handmade. Order Mama Cah Loh Mai Gai from OmniCart, delivered nationwide in 2–3 days.
