想起小时候，母親早上都是煮稀飯（粥）。不知道是不是窮的原因，还是为了简便，有时候我们一家人就是吃白粥配咸鸭蛋或罐頭腌菜。她偶爾也煮番薯粥… 母親还有一道更简便的煮餐法，就是鸡蛋粥，做法很容易…热滾滾煮熟后的粥加入鸡蛋和醬油，搅均后让蛋热熟，撒一些胡椒粉，就是一餐了。记憶中大概我五、六岁的时候吧，我很喜欢鸡蛋粥，也会要求母親煮给我… 这已經是很遙遠的事了！
我吃着我煮的番薯粥配咸鸭蛋和肉鬆… 回味一段往事！
Have you had sweet potato rice porridge before?
I remember when we were kids, my mom cooked rice porridge (congee) every morning. I didn’t know whether it was because we were poor or she wanted to cook something easy and simple; sometimes our meal was plain rice porridge with salted egg or canned vegetables. She cooked sweet potato rice porridge occasionally…. My mom had another simpler dish we called egg rice porridge. It was easy…cook the rice porridge until boiling then put in an egg and soy sauce, stir until it’s all mixed and let the egg cook well. Before serving put in a few pinches of white pepper. It was a meal. I think that was when I was five or six years old. I like egg rice porridge and sometimes asked for it from my mom…. This was a very long time ago!
