How to make carrot, mushroom and chicken porridge

Nowadays, life and work are busy and stressful. Many people do not pay attention to regularity in diet, which will cause various diseases. If you master the healthy cooking methods of one or two dishes, you can not only enjoy the delicious taste, but also supplement the body's nutrition and make our body healthier. Now let’s learn how to make carrot, mushroom and chicken porridge with me.

1. Soak the dried mushrooms for 1 hour in advance. (Just wash the fresh mushrooms)

2. Processing of free-range chickens: The sale of live poultry is prohibited in urban Beijing, so the chickens you buy have already been killed and undergone preliminary processing such as plucking and gutting. Just wash the chicken, cut off the chicken butt, head and claws, then cut the chicken into small pieces, put it in a pot of boiling water, blanch it and take it out.

3. Put the blanched chicken pieces into a casserole with boiling water, add ginger slices, bring to a boil and then simmer on low heat for one and a half hours.

4. Wash and slice the soaked mushrooms; peel and cut the carrots into strips; chop the green onions/cilantro into small pieces and set aside.

5. After an hour and a half, wash the rice and pour it into the casserole for stewing chicken. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat and stir frequently during the process to prevent it from sticking to the pot. (When cooking porridge, you must first use a high fire to make the porridge boil quickly, and then simmer it slowly over a low fire to make it soft and sweet in texture.)

6. When the porridge is 60% cooked, turn to high heat and put the mushrooms in to cook. After boiling, turn to low heat and cook for about 15 minutes to allow the flavor of the mushrooms to fully dissolve in the firewood chicken porridge.

When it is 70% or 90% cooked, turn to high heat, add some salt, put the carrots in and cook. After boiling, turn to low heat and cook for about 4 minutes.

8. Add appropriate amount of chicken essence and mix well before serving.

9. Add scallions/coriander, pickled vegetables, pepper powder, a little sesame oil, stir well and turn off the heat.
