Homemade Seafood and Vegetables Congee Recipe
In winter, when the weather is cold, in addition to paying attention to warmth preservation,a steaming hot seafood porridge would be a great choice. Today, I will share with you a seafood porridge that I often make,
which has undergone multiple attempts and improvements. Its texture is soft and glutinous, fresh and smooth.
My kids love this dish the most; it warms the stomach while satisfying even the pickiest taste buds!
Considering the comprehensive and balanced diet for babies, I also added various vegetables to it.
If you choose to serve a meal with just one bowl of porridge, this is definitely your best choice!

Soak the millet in cold water for 30 minutes.Soaking allows the millet to have enough moisture, making it easier to cook into a soft and glutinous texture that babies enjoy. Dice the carrot and winter melon, blanch them until they are fully cooked in boiling water.
Blanching not only saves cooking time but also removes any off-flavors from the ingredients.
Remove the shrimp's intestinal thread and mince the meat for later use.
Cook the millet and carrot together over low heat until boiling, with carrots being harder and needing a longer cooking time to soften.
Continue to cook the rice over low heat until it is fully expanded.
Add winter melon cubes, stir well, and continue cooking for another 5 minutes. The porridge should start to thicken slightly.
Mix in the seaweed paste or kelp. Scramble a quail egg or regular egg, pour it into the pot, mix thoroughly, then cover and cook over low heat for 3-5 minutes until thickened.
Adding egg improves the smooth texture and enhances the flavor of the porridge.
Before serving, you can add 2 drops of sesame oil and a little salt (do not add salt if your baby is under 1 year old). Serve it in a bowl with minced shrimp on top!
