- 4 servings of cooked long-grain white rice
- light soy sauce optional
- coriander for garnishing

- 3 pieces canned baby abalone
- 2-3 “ang kar” prawns veins and shells removed (leaving only the tail end)
- 2-3 large white Hokkaido scallops if using frozen, thaw before use

Directions:
- In a soup pot, add pork bones and water. Simmer for 20 minutes. Add fish maw and simmer for another 20 minutes, or until softened. Add cabbage in the last 5 minutes of cooking. Set aside.

Wow, so luxurious, the broth must be very sweet too.
I call it “X Treasure Porridge” where X= # of treasures in there :D The broth must be super flavorful even though light-tasting.
I have all the ingredients minus the abalone. I can still cook this porridge, hehehe! Thanks for sharing, it must be delicious too.
Looks like a lavish feast. I love how CNY always leaves so much for delicious leftover meals after the event itself.
While most of us turn the leftovers into the usual ‘Chai Boey’ (pretty much leftover food stew), you guys turned them into something this luxurious, LOL! =)
I am not a fan of congee or porridge, but abalone, hehe….that’s one wonderful bowl of treasures eh? ;-)
