Ingredient:

- ½ bowl of white rice

- A small handful of glutinous rice

- 300g fish fillet (optional)

- 200g straw mushrooms

- 3 dried onions

- 1 small piece of ginger

- 1 teaspoon shrimp salt

- 1 tablespoon of fish sauce

- ½ teaspoon of seasoning powder.

- Onions, dill, coriander

- Crab roe (if desired)

Making:

- To make a thick rice porridge, simply follow the ratio of 10 parts regular rice to 1 part glutinous rice. Soak the rice until it swells, then use a blender to break the grains along with the water. Put the porridge on the stove, stirring constantly, adding water depending on your preference for thick or thin porridge. Reduce the heat and simmer until the rice grains are fully cooked and the porridge thickens.

- Cut the fish into pieces about the size of a chess piece or matchbox if you don't want it to fall apart when cooked.

- Peel and finely chop the onions and ginger, then sauté them in a little oil until fragrant. Add the fish and stir-fry over high heat with shrimp salt and fish sauce until the fish is firm, no need to cook thoroughly. Remove and set aside.

- Cut the straw mushrooms in half or quarters. Blanch them quickly in boiling water, then immediately soak them in cold water to keep them white and crispy. Sauté them briefly with cooking oil and a little chopped scallions, seasoning with about ½ teaspoon of seasoning powder for a richer flavor.

- Add the sautéed fish and mushrooms to the simmering porridge, continue cooking over low heat, cover and wait a few minutes.

- Season the porridge to taste with seasoning powder and add a little fish sauce to enhance the flavor.

- Wash and finely chop the scallions, cilantro, and dill. Add them to the porridge if eating immediately, or divide the scallions and dill into small bowls and pour hot porridge over them. Add a little good quality fish sauce, some crab roe, a sprinkle of pepper, and a few slices of fresh chili for a fragrant, sweet bowl of porridge to slurp up.
