CNY [Chinese New Year] 2013 is coming soon in February and this period should be quite a busy time for me with lots of CNY cookies to bake for my MIL, mum and some close relatives. Last year, I didn't bake any cookies cos' the family was mourning our Pa's passing. Whenever, I'm busy baking cookies, I'll prepare easy meals [preferably 1 Dish Meal] for the family to avoid over working myself.
This porridge is quick to cook yet delicious with meatballs, fish maw and fried beancurd skin. I served this porridge with a quick stir fry leafy vegetables. It's as appetising however simple after several hours of hard work in the kitchen.
