Categories: Chinese, Soup
Yield: 2 Servings
20 g Dried prawns
10 g Dried squid body
200 g White fish fillet
120 g Long-grain jasmine rice
800 ml Water; boiling, up to 900 ml
1 ts Light soya sauce
1 ts Tianjin/Tientsin pickled
-cabbage
1 tb Spring onions; cut 3-4 mm
-thick
1 tb Fried garlic or shallots
Ground white pepper; to
-taste
Rinse dried prawns. soak 10 minutes or longer in just enough water to
cover 20 g dried prawns.
Discard quill from dried squid. Cut crosswise about 3 cm long with
scissors. Cut lengthwise into thin strips about 1 mm thick. Rinse.
Soak in just enough water to cover until soft, about 20 minutes
Rinse fish fillet. Slice bite-size 3-4 mm thick. Mix evenly with 1 ts
light soya sauce. Sprinkle with 1/2 ts corn flour or tapioca starch.
Mix thoroughly.
Put kettle on. Wash rice till water runs clear. Add dried prawns,
along with soaking liquid, and 750 ml boiling water. Bring to a boil.
Stir thoroughly to prevent rice from sticking. Keep rice boiling
rapidly for 10 minutes, checking and stirring from time to time to
make sure rice doesn't boil over.
Top up with boiling water if necessary, depending on how thin you
like your porridge. Continue boiling rapidly till rice is just soft
but surface is still smooth without any sign of turning mushy,
another 5 minutes or so.
Season porridge with 1 ts light soya sauce and pickled cabbage. Add
fish and stir through gently, over high heat. Turn off heat once
porridge returns to a gentle simmer. Add dried squid, along with
soaking liquid, and stir through. Remove pot from stove.
Quickly taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Immediately transfer
porridge to serving bowls to prevent fish from overcooking. Sprinkle
with spring onions, fried garlic and ground white pepper. Serve
immediately.
Notes:
Fish porridge is best eaten with a light soya sauce dip, with lime
juice and thinly sliced bird's eye chillies added. The savoury, tangy
dip brings out the sweetness of the fish.
