An easy porridge to prepare for busy days or leisure weekend with no compromise to taste. A tasty and flavourful porridge with sesame oil and shredded ginger. The original recipe is a vegetarian porridge using vegetarian ham. Here I substituted it with some minced meat.
When I first looked at this recipe, I thought it was too bland and nothing tasty at all, but I was wrong. It's a yummy porridge which I will cook next time with vegetarian or mock meats when I'm on vegetarian diet
