ByFood: Porridge Nuggets (from leftover porridge)

I woke up early this morning to prepare porridge and some dishes for my family. Everyone ate till burped at least 3 to 4 times so I guessed this must be what is called, a filling breakfast. There was still some porridge left in the pot and my family has a "no food wastage" policy so I thought that making Porridge Pancake (taught by Sunny) would be a good idea. I made into nuggets version

Well, it was a bad idea afterall even though this was my 2nd try at this dish.  Why? If you do not like flour, if you are impatient, if you don't like deep-frying and if you are health conscious, it is not recommended to attempt this recipe! 

1. The idea of adding rice flour into porridge and eating it, made me really sceptical about the taste. I was totally turned off by the time I added my 3rd tablespoon of rice flour into the mixture. So I stopped at that.
2. I totally made a mess out of it at first because I didn't know how much rice flour to add. It took me 3 tries to get the texture right. By that time, I didn't have enough oil inside the pan anymore and my nuggets could not turn golden brown. So I had to keep adding more oil which is very unhealthy.
3. It took me about 10 - 15 minutes to fry each side of the nuggets using medium-low heat. And, my pancakes still weren't rich golden brown! This means that I had to use medium heat and quite a lot of oil during deep frying process.
4. I added diced salted vegetables + light soy sauce into the porridge flour mixture because Sunny likes this flavour. But darn... I didn't like this flavour the least bit even after taking a few bites.  ;|

My Porridge Nuggets

I'm sure Sunny will do a much better job than this!

The inside texture was surprising though because it tasted like fried carrot cake and this was the main good thing about Porridge Pancake. I strongly recommend using seafood or other meat with vegetables when making this. All in all, this was an exasperating attempt at Porridge Pancake. I won't been making this for the time being, which also means that I've to cook lesser porridge during meals next time!
