Have you ever tried making Xiaomi (Small Rice) porridge at home? It's simple and delicious! First, rinse 1 cup of small rice in cold water until the water runs clear. Drain the rice thoroughly and soak it for about 30 minutes. This step helps to make the porridge smoother and more flavorful.
After soaking, add the rice to 6 cups of water in a pot. Bring it to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and let it simmer for about 45 minutes to an hour, stirring occasionally. The longer it cooks, the creamier it becomes. You can adjust the consistency by adding more water if needed.
For extra flavor, you can add some ingredients like goji berries 枸杞 or wolfberry, which not only enhance taste but also provide health benefits. Once done, season with a pinch of salt or a drizzle of honey to taste. Xiaomi porridge is perfect for breakfast or as a comforting snack anytime of the day. Enjoy your warm bowl of goodness! 🍲✨
