Cooking in Steps

  1. 1
    In a large pot, combine the rice with four cups of water and a little salt. Bring the rice and water to a boil. Reduce to low heat, cover and gently simmer for a few hours. Stir the rice periodically to ensure that it does not stick to the bottom.

    Add more water if too much evaporates before the rice grains have dissolved enough to provide a good porridge consistency. Cook the rice three to four hours until you get a thick porridge consistency.

    As the porridge is finishing, prepare the remaining ingredients. In a large pan, saut the garlic and ginger for about ten seconds in canola or gape-seed oil over medium heat. Once the garlic and ginger have released their flavors into the oil, but before they burn, add the chopped mushrooms. Saut for about 5 minutes until the mushrooms release their water and it has practically evaporated from the pan.

    Note: You can quickly make your own chili oil by warming some oil in a pan without allowing it to smoke, and adding fresh or dried crushed chilis to cook for a few minutes without burning. Once cooked, you can either strain out the chilis, or leave them in.
