This is the type of porridge to eat when you’re feeling sick. Our Uncle Mike uses it as an appetizer. I just packed some for my sister’s lunch. I also ate it for dinner. Do what You want!

PS; use the Instant Pot to make this finish faster!

Ingredients

4-5 people
  1. 5chicken pieces
  2. 2eggs, hard boiled
  3. SlicesLemon
  4. Halfan onion, diced
  5. 2 stalksgreen onion, sliced
  6. 8 clovesgarlic, minced
  7. 1thumb-sized knob of ginger, minced
  8. 1 cupglutinous rice (sushi grade)
  9. 5 cupschicken broth
  10. to tasteFish sauce
  11. to tasteFreshly ground black pepper

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Chop up the veggies.

  2. 2

    Throw them in the IP using the Sauté function on Med heat w 1 tbsp oil. I used 1 tbsp of garlic and reserved the rest for later. Constantly stir until translucent.

  3. 3

    Add in the chicken. I used 3 wings and 2 drumsticks. More bones = more flavor!

  4. 4

    My grandma used to slice the chicken pieces so they could absorb more flavor. I feel that it makes it easier to pick the chicken off when it’s done.

  5. 5

    Add the rice and about a serving-spoon size of fish sauce. You can add more fish sauce later. Cook for 2 mins.

  6. 6

    Fillerup with some chicken stock!

  7. 7

    Cover & cook for 15 mins in the IP. If using the stovetop, cook for 45mins, stirring constantly.

  8. 8

    Meanwhile, fry up that leftover garlic I was talking about. Trust me on this one. It’s crucial.

  9. 9

    Garnish with green onion, freshly ground black pepper, sliced boiled egg, and that amazing fried garlic. Squeeze some lemon and enjoy!

  10. 10

    And get well soon :)

When I was younger, my Mom would make me her little sous chef. “Peel the shrimp, chop the onions, cut the vegetables!” When Grandma moved in, Mom stopped cooking and I continued to be the sous chef in the kitchen. Grandma is the cooking EXPERT. Here are my notes!
