My Simple Con gee aka Porridge

I love eating Porridge. As I love eating the smooth Porridge. Always wonder how to make it.
I search around and I found the working method and faster way to cook my con gee.

How to make a smooth white con gee.

1. Soaks the rice minimum half an hour before you boil it, drop a little oil to the rice so it does not stick together.
2. Boiled the water, usually the water is triple than the rice ratio, if you would like a watery con gee , you can add more , or the other way around
3. add in your rice and let it cook until boiled, turn down the heat to the lowest heat.
4. boiled for 20 minutes and the rice will be seen as started to break
5. Start to stir continuously for 10 minutes
6. You will find the con gee texture become smooth and thick as all the rice has break equally
7. If you found it is not smooth enough, cook for 10 minutes and stir for another 10 minutes.
8. At last you will get your white smooth con gee. You can keep it , or you can later add in any other ingredient and boil for 5 minutes.

Tips:

• Half an hour is just the minimum time to soak the rice, the longer time you soaks , the rice easily cooked and break
• Oil make the con gee become smoother
• Always watch out if the con gee is stick at the bottom of your pot, make sure you stir it and keep it to become overcook and burn

Love Had Raised Me up

In life, everyone have their own path.
However, the path where you grow is may not be your desired choice.
As times goes by, people remember how they are being raised, and static at the comfort zone.
As that is the only thing they knew.

Little Flower grow path, has been raised by love.
For being long enough that Little Flower has finally awakening.

As it is now awakening Little Flower, she choose her path to stay grounded and continue grow.
Now she felt herself belong to the nature.
She hear all the nature concert , she hear the tree whispering.

The Love of Food - How I choose my ingredients

How do I choose my ingredients?

This question is link to another question : How do you cook that?

I bought my whole week food and store in the fridge during weekend.

I carefully make sure that the food I bought especially vegetable is not the same as last week if possible.

Everyday I will think of what is the combination of Carbohydrate , Protein , Vegetables and make it difference for whole week menu.

Another suggestion , Plan your whole week menu and do the research for the recipe, and make your shopping list before you shop. Remember to note for some extra menu , in case the ingredient is not available for you to shop.

WHY? This is to ensure myself and my love ones have balance meal , so that we consume everything to boost our immune system.


My experience, I was not a born to be chef , so I always look for the recipe so that I can follow the recipe to cook.

The PRO  , I will know how to cook a dish in a proper manner.
The CONs, I am restricted to the recipe .I might gone crazy looking for the ingredients that I may just use like once a month?

Now, I will base on the available ingredients and look for similar recipe and make some modification.
Waa Lah.. I got my own creation of recipe. I happily playing with my herbs and all the other flavors , like a witch putting a spell and waa lah..there goes my creation. ^_^

The Key to do the modification , is to understand your ingredient, the texture , the flavor and the cooked time for that ingredient.

Well we all not a born to be CHEF. You can always start with the basic, salad .
You can choose whatever ingredient you like , add in , and choose your dressing ( simple as lemon juice , salt and pepper, olive oil)

Try now, you can make your own lunch.

The love of Food- The reasons

I thank you for all the ingredients , herbs and the food resource which is accessible by me to prepare a great meal.

Many had spoke to me about the lunch box I brought to office.They often ask me the same question. I share and provide my answer here.


The reason I cook is for LOVE . The love for MYSELF , MY LOVE ONE and for the love of health.

With home cook, we are able to define what we should eat for the whole week and to ensure the quality of the ingredient and cooking.

Part of health is related to what we consume on daily basis.

Everyday we start our day with fresh lemon juice mix with water. This is to reduce the acid PH in our body, direct impact on our energy. When the Acid PH of the body is high it will cause tiredness and it is a good base for virus or bacteria to develop. Hence adjusting the PH of the body is the most important part.

How good is to have home cook?

1st it is benefit to myself and my love ones as we are the one that consuming it, what else is better than this?

2nd Balance Diet - We able to plan the whole week meal with different type of carbohydrate , protein , mineral , vitamins.

3rd Save money - Nowadays , the food that you consume is almost double of the ingredients price . I can have fine dining with the minimum as the ingredient price that excluded the business profit , the service charge and also the government tax.
