Directions
Though pumpkin millet porridge is a family tradition, I cook pumpkin porridge with rice more often as rice is my kids’ favorite cereal.
Pumpkin Rice Porridge has a most tender texture and a more intense pumpkin taste as rice is rather neutral cereal in flavor. The recipe for pumpkin rice porridge is practically the same, except for a few moments: there’s no need to rinse rice and drain cooking liquid. This is unrinsed round rice that creates silky and smooth texture of this porridge.
If you like pumpkin millet porridge, you will like a rice variation as well!
Bon appetite!
