【Rolled Pigeon Porridge】
Overview
As we all know, if you want to maintain health and enhance physical fitness in winter, cooking porridge is an excellent choice. Raw porridge is one of the traditional porridges in Guangdong. It is made of pre-cooked white porridge and fresh meat and is cooked in one pot. The specific method is to boil the white porridge in a small casserole, add the meat, boil it for a while, then remove from the heat, add chopped vegetables and then eat it. When eating, add pepper to make it more delicious. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that pigeon meat has the functions of nourishing the liver and kidneys, replenishing qi and blood, strengthening the brain and replenishing the spirit, clearing away heat and detoxifying, producing body fluids and quenching thirst. Therefore, there is a folk saying that pigeons are better than nine chickens. The pigeon porridge I made this time used chopped coriander instead of vegetable granules, which added a different flavor to the taste.
