In Indonesia, congee, called bubur, is a favourite breakfast food, and many food vendors pass through the streets at dawn, calling "bubur" to sell it to householders. (WIKIPEDIA)
This chicken rice porridge (congee) is my favourite. When I was young, my mother used to make me this chicken rice porridge.
After married and moved overseas, I have to be able to cook it myself. By asking my mother when I went home last year, finally I can make it myself.
This time, I want to submit a report to the Indonesian Food Blogger
