Cooking Instructions
Step 1
The foundation of delicious porridge is a good broth! In a pot, combine water with anchovies or dried kelp, and simmer for about 15 minutes to create a flavorful broth. This step is crucial for the depth of flavor in your porridge.
Step 2
While the broth is simmering, prepare the crab meat by shredding it into bite-sized pieces. If using canned crab meat, lightly drain any excess liquid.
Step 3
Remove the dried kelp from the broth. Add 1 bowl of cooked rice and 1/2 block of soft tofu to the pot. For a pleasant texture, you can break the soft tofu into larger chunks with a spoon.
Step 4
Now, generously add the shredded crab meat. Season with 1/2 Tbsp soy sauce and 1/2 tsp salt to balance the flavors. Finally, stir in a handful of freshly shredded green onions and let it simmer briefly. Your delicious crab and soft tofu porridge is almost ready!
Step 5
Just before turning off the heat, add a pinch of black pepper to enhance the aroma and drizzle with sesame oil for a nutty richness. Ladle the warm porridge into bowls and enjoy!
