I'm sooo happy when it comes to eating taiwan porridge.Its very popular in the 70s. Mum told us that when she & dad were dating, they used to frequent lougue houses where they serve taiwan porridge.
Its actually plain porridge cooked with sweet potatoes, often serve with beansprouts, cai po, salted veggie, braised pig skin, fried promfet & other kind of steamed fishes. These are the few popular dishes where pple will normally choose when eating taiwan porridge.
As sweet potatoes is the trend in our family now, i suggested to mum that we shall haf taiwan porridge for lunch today, its better than eating out. I cooked a few dishes to go with the porridge. Among all, i simply love the Pig Skin~~~Collagen u noe? haha....
