Step:

  1. Heat up about 2 tbspn oil in a pot. Fry the blended items till fragrant.

  2. Put in all the spices & fry further. If too dry, add a little water to prevent burning.

  3. Once aromatic, put in water till it covers of pot. Leave it to boil.

  4. Put in rice & beef. Let boil for few minutes. Then simmer on medium low heat. Adjust water level accordingly. If still too grainy, add more water.

  5. Meanwhile, put dried shrimps in food processor (without water) and chopped till fine. Set aside.

  6. Once porridge reached desired texture, put in 1 tbspn coconut milk and 2 tbspn chopped dried shrimps. Stir to mix well. Then turn off heat.

  7. Yeapp.. I only used 2 tbspn because I feared the taste might be too overwhelming. You can either keep the rest of the dried shrimps or put in all. Or reduced the amount of dried shrimps before chopping.

  8. Garnish and serve.
