Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 The ingredients this time do not indicate the portion size, so make the porridge more casually. If you like it thicker, add more ingredients, and if you like it thinner, add less. There are no limitations on the types of materials, such as chestnuts, walnut kernels, pine nuts, corn kernels, and many other ingredients can be added.

   

2. 2 Soak peanuts, red beans, black beans, and lotus seeds one night in advance.

   

3. 3 Soak rice and millet 1 or 2 hours in advance. You can also cook them directly without soaking.

   

4. 4 Add water to the casserole, add beans, peanuts, and lotus seeds, bring to a boil over high heat, then turn to medium heat and simmer slowly.

   

5. 5 When the soup turns red, add red dates and longan. The red dates can also be soaked slightly in advance. The order of adding ingredients is to put the hard-to-cook ingredients first, then the easy-to-cook ingredients. Finally add rice and millet. During the cooking process, you can add cold water several times.

   

6. 6 There are not many skills in making porridge. To prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pot and from boiling out of the pot, simmer it over low heat until the ingredients are soft and the soup is thick. Then add rock sugar or white sugar according to your preference, and you can eat it out of the pot.

   

7. 7 Drink a bowl in winter, it's warm, sweet and delicious.
