i make lovely porridge. and it's so darn easy to make it nice and yummy. so i shall share the recipe... just in case any of you wants to make it. lol

Porridge (serves 2)

ingredients
rice - 1 cup
chicken thigh fillet - 1, de-skinned and de-fat
lap cheong - 2 10cm long ones
chinese radish - about 10cm long (1/2 a radish)
light soya sauce - 1 teaspoon (to taste)

steps
- wash the rice and put it in a medium size pot. add water till it about 2 cm over the top of the volume of rice. ( if you are a poor estimator, remember that u can add more water later but you cannot remove water)
- boil the rice over medium high heat
- meanwhile, chop the chicken fillet and lap cheong and chinese radish into bite size pieces (1.5 cm big)
- when the rice thing boils, add the chopped ingredients.
- stir to make sure the rice does not stick to the bottom of the pot
- when mixture boils, lower heat and simmer for about 1/2 hour. stir frequently.
- add soya sauce to taste.

PS: you can add a tiny bit of stock cube if you want. but really, the lap cheong and radish makes the porridge very sweet and tasty already.

- you can substitute the radish for other vegies like cabbage or onions.
