Leftover rice? Boil porridge with it.

If you cooked your rice with too much water, you can solve the problem by making porridge with the leftover.

Put rice in a pot.



You can add leftover dish like steamed minced pork or oyster sauce chicken to the rice to add flavour to it.  Bones, if any, should be removed from the leftover dish.

If you do not have any leftover dish to add, you can use marinated sliced or minced pork, chicken or fish.  Add fresh ingredients to the pot of rice once the water is boiling.

Ingredients for marinating sliced or minced pork, chicken or fish:

1) Soya sauce
2) Sugar
3) Garlic Oil
4) Corn flour

Add ginger slices or ginger juice to fish.

This is the bowl of leftover steamed minced pork which will be used to make the porridge.



Fill the bowl of leftover dish with boiled water.  That will make it easier to pour dish into the pot of rice and make cleaning up the bowl easier.



Pour the ingredients into the pot of rice.  Add more hot water to cover over the rice.  Turn on heat.  Reduce the heat once the water starts boiling.

Watch the fire, as you do not want the water to boil over and mess up the stove.  Lifting the lid off the pot a bit will prevent that from happening.

Add salt or soya sauce to taste.  This is how the porridge should look like once it is cooked.



You can add pepper to the porridge if you want to.

If you do not add any ingredient to the porridge, you can eat the white porridge with salted egg, salted fish and preserved vegetable.
