Wolfberries and Lotus Seed Porridge

Another easy porridge with just a few ingredients.  Can be vegetarian or non-vegetarian according to your preference.  Again, I substituted the vegetarian ham with some minced meat.
Tasty soft porridge with crunchy lotus seeds, fragrant mushrooms and sweet wolfberries [kei chi].  Comfort food for Sunday lunch.
Recipe Source - Yum Yum Magazine No. 48 with slight modifications

1 tbsp sesame oil
Seasoning
1 tsp vegetarian mushroom seasoning or 1/2 cube chicken stock granules [non-vegetarian]
Salt and pepper to taste
  1. Clean rice and soak in water for 30 minutes and drain [I didn't soak the rice].
