Wok With Kok is Back!

Hello everyone! Welcome to today's *pointing the mic to the audience*

Wok With Kok!

Thank you!

Today, Wok With Kok brings to you a dish everyone must know how to cook!

Chicken Porridge.

Yes, Chicken Porridge (Congee)! No matter if you need a breakfast, lunch, dinner, or supper, porridge is still your best company.

Psstt... guys, if you want to win a girl's heart, cook this when she's not feeling well (of course, don't always wish the one you love to get sick lah :P). She'll be touched! Girls, you can do the same! :)

Now, let Chef Kok show you how easy is this dish.

First, prepare these ingredients.

1. Chicken/Pork (minced meat if you're cooking for someone who's not feeling well).
2. Half cup of rice
3. Water (a lot)
4. 1 or 2 pieces of lettuce
5. Pepper
6. Salt
7. Chicken powder (optional)
8. Oyster sauce
   

The cooking method is pretty straightforward but don't take it too simple.

1. Slice the chicken/pork and marinate it with a bit of salt and pepper. If minced meat is your choice, mixed it with a bit of cornflour and oyster sauce.
2. Clean the lettuce. Cut 3/4 into slices and chopped another 1/4 of it. Sounds troublesome? You'll know my reason later on.
   
3. Wash the rice and boil it over medium fire with at least 5 to 6 cups of water in a medium size pot.
   
4. Boil some more water since in most cases you'll need to add more water.
   
5. Constantly and gently stir the "rice" to avoid getting it burnt.
6. This is optional. Add in chicken powder at your own taste. You might need to skip this when you cook this for people not feeling well. They might want something "tasteless".
   
7. Add more water if the water in the pot started to get less.
   
8. When it's almost done, turn the fire to low and add in the chicken/pork slices. For minced meat, you may want to take a spoonful and roll it into meatball.
9. Turn off the fire when the meat is almost cooked.
10. Put all the letuce slices into a bowl.
11. Pour the porridge into the bowl.
12. Garnish it with the chopped lettuce on top and add a little bit of pepper if you prefer.
13. Finally, serve it HOT!

A close look...

Easy peasy, eh? Oh, before I forget, you might want to eat your porridge with this...

Alternatively, you can use your rice cooker to boil your porridge. It's just the same method and might be easier. Or, if there's leftover rice from yesterday dinner, don't waste it! You can cook porridge with that. Just add more water and boil it. ;)

Ok, folks! That's for today's Wok With Kok. Kok can cook, so can you! Enjoy and thanks!

Tips: You might want to add in slices of ginger and boil it with the porridge. It'll taste better. ;)

Edited: Additional tips! Try to toss it with sesame oil. I bet you'll like it.
