When I run out of idea on what to put on dining table, porridge always comes in handy. Usually porridge requires less amount of rice therefore porridge is also what I thought of when we choose to have less especially for our dinner!

Making porridge is simple but a good porridge demands some patience and consistent monitoring so that it doesn't run too dry and turn into rice!

Out of so many porridge that I prepared, this attempt is one of the best as claimed by my Significant Other. Ready to try?

Ingredients (*Serving for 2)
To marinate:
1/3 pound pork loin center-cut chop boneless - sliced
1 tbsp oyster sauce
1 tbsp light soy sauce
1/8 tsp salt
1/8 tsp pepper

To cook in rice cooker:
1/2 cup rice
4 cup of water
1/2 cup corn
1/2 cup diced carrot
1/2 cup diced sweet potato

1/2 cup cilantro
salt and pepper to taste

Method
1. Slice the pork of 1" X 1/2". Sprinkle some salt and pepper. Rub with oyster sauce and soy sauce. Leave it for 1-2 hours in refrigerator.

2. Place rice and water into rice cooker. Put to cook (like how you did for rice).
3. Pour in the carrot, corn, sweet potato so that they will get cooked nicely by the time the rice 'blooms' (this is my term to indicate the congee is done) or the rice grain is sort of broken.
4. Consistently stir and check the water content. Add some water in case it runs dry.
5. Once the rice grains get broken and almost splitting, place in the marinated pork. Stir them well and cook for another 20 minutes. Monitor and stir occasionally.
6. Season with salt, pepper and soy sauce and turn off the cooker.
7. Serve it hot and garnish with chopped cilantro.

Bon Appetit!

Tips: If you prefer the porridge to appear smooth and thicken, keep adding water and cook longer.
