Cooking Instructions
Step 1
In a pot, combine 1 bowl of cooked rice with approximately 2 cups (400ml) of water, which is about twice the volume of the rice. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce to medium-low heat. Stir frequently with a spatula or ladle to prevent the rice from clumping and to help it break down. Cook for about 10-15 minutes, stirring regularly, until the rice grains are soft and the mixture begins to thicken.
Step 2
Once the rice has softened and the porridge has reached a thick consistency, stir in 3 tablespoons of perilla seed powder until well combined and smooth. Continue to cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, for another 5 minutes. This step allows the nutty flavor of the perilla seeds to fully infuse into the porridge. If the porridge becomes too thick, add a little more water to achieve your desired consistency.
Step 3
Finally, add 1/4 teaspoon of salt to season. Stir once more to ensure everything is evenly distributed, then turn off the heat. Your delicious perilla seed porridge is ready! Feel free to adjust the amount of salt and perilla seed powder to your personal preference. Enjoy it hot for a warm, comforting, and filling meal.
