If Yan can cook, so can Miu!

The kitchen is ready for cooking!!!! Today I tried cooking porridge using the rice cooker. Abalone porridge!!
The three of us, me, my brother and mum looks on at the rice cooker, as if our life saviour is shining from within.
And what happen when the rice is boiling? The water brewed out from the cooker and suddenly, the kitchen lights went off...electricity tripped................So, lesson learnt for today? Never use a RICE cooker to cook PORRIDGE.

So here's to share you a simple recipe:

ABALONE PORRIDGE

One can of Abalone, slice and dice. Keep the abalone water.
Rice grains
Tap water
Salt

Scoop the amt of rice you need to cook for porridge. One cup is enough for about 3 persons share. Wash the rice grains and then add in water. The amount of water should be double or more as compare to the amount of rice. Most of the time I dont measure, I go by instinct. If you like your porridge to be watery, you may add in more water. Once the water boils, stir the abalone water, add some salt for taste. Simmer to boil. Stir the porridge as and when and see if the rice grain has soften. Once it is almost done, off the stove and add in diced abalone. Scoop into bowls, serve it hot. Add pepper if desired.

Yes, if Yan can Cook, Miu can cook too!!!!!!!!! Except baking. I ever tried baking cookies following a simple recipe and guess what happen when I took out the cookies from the oven????? They cooled and I feel them and you know how it feels like?? Rock Stone. Spending my time and effort following closely to the recipe and in the end it becomes rocks!!!!!! I was so frustrated with myself that I threw the rock cookies against the kitchen wall and it actually bounced back!!!! Faint. And ever since then, I only bake using ready made cake mix from the cold storage.

Moral of the story: Kiang Tiok Hoh, Mai Gay Kiang (smart is good enough, don' act smart)
