BB White Bait, Chicken & Tofu Porridge

Got some fresh white bait (some call it silver fish,white fish, etc) from the market yesterday and made some for Kimi today. He enjoyed this porridge very much! The white bait and chicken made it very sweet and tasty.

Ingredients
  • Chicken fillet
  • 1 tbsp of fresh white bait (washed and drained)
  • 2 inch egg tofu sliced thickly (you can also use plain if BB dont take full eggs yet)
  • A few florets of broccoli
  • 2 tbsp white rice grains
Method
  1. Put all ingredients except tofu and broccoli into slow cooker.
  2. Add hot water and set on high.
  3. Cook for 1.5 to 2 hours depending on texture needed.
  4. Occasionally check on porridge and add water when necesary so that it doesn't dry up.
  5. Add in the tofu and broccoli 30 mins before serving.
  6. Remove the chicken fillet and shred before adding back to porridge.
  7. Serve hot
  8. ENJOY!
Tips
  • If you want you can use stock instead of water but because you are already using the chix fillet and white bait as a 'stock base' here, there is no need to.

  • I prefer to use the actual chix or pork or other ingredients to boil as 'stock base' for the porridges cos it is more tasty compared to using pre-prepared stock. This is because the flavour will steep into the porridge, making it more tasty.

  • Normally, I do not use these meat again. I would remove and discard and add fish. But for the chix fillet, i would shred it and use it if I'm not giving fish for that meal.
