Tips for Success

Soak in advance

When making Purple potato oatmeal porridge, purple rice, oat groats and glutinous rice should be soaked in advance for at least 1 hour to make the rice fully absorb water. This way, it is easier to boil and bloom when cooking, and the taste will be more soft and glutinous.

The amount of water should be moderate

When making Purple potato oatmeal porridge, pay attention to adding an appropriate amount of water. It should not be too much or too little. It is recommended to add eight-tenths full. If there is too much water, the porridge will be too thin and there will be no thick taste. If there is too little water, it is easy to burn the pot and also cause the porridge to be too dry and affect the taste.

Cook with the lid on

When cooking Purple potato oatmeal porridge, remember to cover the pot so that the heat in the pot can circulate evenly and make various ingredients fully blend. The cooking time of 40 minutes is also very important, which can ensure that the Purple potato is cooked thoroughly and the rice is cooked just right.

FAQs:

Q
What if purple rice, oat groats and glutinous rice are not soaked for an hour?
A
If the soaking time is insufficient, the rice may be difficult to cook. The cooked porridge will taste a bit hard, and there may be a situation where the core of the rice is still raw. Because purple rice, oat groats and glutinous rice are relatively hard, soaking is to make them absorb enough water so that they can boil and bloom faster when cooking and achieve a soft and glutinous taste.
Q
Will different sizes of Purple potatoes affect the taste of the porridge?
A
Yes.
It is recommended to cut Purple potatoes into evenly sized pieces. If the sizes of Purple potatoes are different, it may lead to some Purple potatoes being cooked while some are not. Cutting Purple potatoes into evenly sized pieces can make the taste and texture of the porridge reach a better balance.
Q
What if I accidentally add too much water and the porridge is too thin?
A
If the Purple potato oatmeal porridge is too thin, you can continue to cook for a while to let some of the water evaporate. Or pour the porridge into the pot and simmer slowly over low heat. At the same time, keep stirring to avoid sticking to the pot until it reaches the thickness you want.
Q
How to adjust the sweetness of Purple potato oatmeal porridge?
A
If you like sweetness, you can add an appropriate amount of rock sugar or white sugar during the cooking process.
Secondly, you can also add some milk or soy milk as a sweetener. It not only increases the sweetness but also improves the nutritional value of the porridge. However, for people who need to control sugar intake, sweeteners can be reduced or omitted appropriately.
