Rep My State Challenge. Porridge Yam with Flavoured Smoked Fis

Yam is considered by the IBO's as a wealth crop. This tuber crop adorns in pride during the annual new yam festival a prominent feature in the South - Eastern divide of Nigeria. Learning this very decadent meal was seeing my dad cook his home induced flavoured yam porridge at the weekends and when yam was made available. As someone from Imo state and one that has been across the divide I feel privileged to not only know how to prepare this very meal. But i have made it among my signature dishes and its one that holds so much meaning and love when shared.

Chicken Porridge with Sauté Mushrooms Chicken Porridge with Sauté Mushrooms
Rice porridge has been my comfort food since I was young. I like all kinds of porridge, whether it’s chicken porridge, or fish porridge, or even just plain porridge. My mom always cooked me this whenever I wasn’t feeling well. And now, for my daughter, I also do the same thing. The Chinese believe that rice porridge is easier to digest when one is not well.#heirloomIf you like my recipes, please follow my Instagram @jenscookingdiary @jenscookdineandtravel jenscookingdiary -
Beef & Vegetable Porridge Beef & Vegetable Porridge
This is the Korean dish called Soegogi-yachaejuk. It is mild in taste, not spicy. It is a hearty, filling main dish. You need to use a starchy, short grained rice for it to reach the proper thickness. They use what is called sweet rice typically, but arborio is easier to find, so I use that. Give it a try, you will like it. Fo Fa -

Mango Daliya/ Mango porridge Mango Daliya/ Mango porridge
Mango Dalia is a sweet porridge made with broken wheat, milk and mangoes. My mother used to make this sweet porridge for breakfast and I used to save some and had it after dinner as a dessert. It is a great way to use mangoes which are very healthy and nutritious. I don't use any sweetner for this Dalia as mango puree provides the sweetness and creamy texture as well. But sometimes the mangoes are not sweet enough and you have to add a little sugar or any other sweetner to enhance the taste.This porridge is a great way to start your day. Broken wheat provides all the benefits of a grain, mangoes provide the nutrients of a fruit and milk is a great source of calcium and protein. Together they make a complete healthy breakfast meal. It is good for growing kids also. This one pot meal can be prepared in advance and can be kept in the refrigerator for 6-7 hours. It tastes best when served chilled. #CookClick Sumeet Kaur (Recipes and more by Sumi) -
