Paomo is porridge boiled with white rice, such as dried oyster porridge, shredded abalone porridge and paomo porridge. , usually using more than two kinds of materials. As the name implies, porridge is cooked with casserole and raw rice. When the porridge is seven ripe, put the raw materials and add the ingredients to cook. Classic porridge includes raw fish porridge in casserole, shrimp porridge in casserole and crab porridge in casserole. Here, the master introduces two representative salty porridge and the formula of unique ingredients. Ingredients: fresh oysters, minced pork and rice.

Practice: Cook the rice first, then soak it in the soup to make porridge, and cook it with oysters and minced meat for about 20 minutes.

Point: Chop the meat first, then the oysters. When you see the oysters bulging, you have to stop fighting. Porridge can't be kept for long, and all restaurants are ready to cook. If it is left for a long time, the oysters will be overcooked, and the rice will absorb water and soften, diluting the umami flavor.

(1) Taomi cooking. After washing the rice, remove the water, put two spoonfuls of peanut oil and rice and mix well (uncooked rice is easier to cook after being mixed with oil, and it is not easy to stick to the pot). After the rice is cooked, add a little shredded ginger, garlic cloves and winter vegetables.

(2) wash shrimp. But if it's too big to taste, cut it off from the shrimp's back and remove its beard. You don't need to remove the head of the shrimp, you can whole the shrimp (you can put a little salt when washing the shrimp).

(3) put shrimp. When the rice is about to boil and bloom, you can cook shrimp together. (pay attention to the heat, it is best to stew slowly. It's in an exquisite casserole. )

Key points: the main thing is to be able to match the ingredients. Stir-fried garlic, onion oil and fried square fish in the ingredients should be cooked by themselves before cooking porridge. Garlic, onion and square fish (also called "native fish") should be diced and fried, and onion oil should be left in the frying pan. The most difficult thing to find at home is fish sauce, which is a specialty of Chaozhou. It is difficult to filter out fish oil and cook it with fresh fish, but it is difficult to cook it at home. The master suggested using ordinary salt instead.

(1) Don't choose prawns that are too big, because they are neither tender nor sweet (old ones are naturally not tender).

(2) It is best to use northeast rice and add a little glutinous rice (note that rice should be mixed with oil before cooking).

(5) When eating porridge, it is best to prepare a dish of soy sauce, which can be seasoned with shrimp.
