How to make French bean porridge

Green beans can be used to make many delicious dishes. For example, if you cut green beans into small pieces, you can use them to make rice or porridge. When making porridge, you should make sure to soak the rice first. Soak it in cold water for about half an hour, take it out to drain the water, and then put it in the pot to cook. Add green beans when it is almost cooked, and finally add a small amount of salt, because this is a salty porridge that can stimulate the appetite without being too greasy.
