Sliced Fish Porridge

What's life without food? Singapore's quite famous for the type and variety of cuisine and food they have, for that, i'm glad my love for food has never died.

Thanks to my mum for being semi-retired, i'm able to take the wok and pan from the kitchen and become 'Chef" of the house. My passion for food is developed from my love for eating. I used to be a glutton, but ever since i'm down with some health problems, cooking has been my alternative.

From now on, i'll be proudly sharing my recipes with friends or anyone reading this blog. You can even get any recipe from me personally if you want.

Today i tried cooking porridge. The key to cooking porridge is the texture of the porridge. There's lots of style is cooking porridge, ranging from Teochew style to Taiwan style etc.
There you go.
