    30 Days of Easy Dinner Ideas: Day 1 Pumpkin Porridge 🥣 

    Cooking healthy dinners that don't take up more than 30 mins is a challenge I think all of us face. I'll be sharing what easy dinner ideas I come up with that can all be done in 20 mins or less with just 1-2 pots so you can minimize clean up and eat well!

    Let’s get into this recipe ⬇️⬇️⬇️
    20 mins, serves 1

    Ingredients:
    • 1/4 cup rice
    • 1/2 cup water + 1/2 cup pumpkin soup
    • 1 tsp of kombu tsuyu (kombu soup seasoning)
    • 1 egg
    • Furikake
    • Salmon flakes (grilled salmon that's been fried with a bit of soy sauce, mirin, and sake)

    Instructions:
    • Wash your rice then place in a pot with the water and pumpkin soup mixed up. Add in the 1 tsp of kombu tsuyu.
    • Cover and bring to a boil and cook for 15 mins or until rice is cooked.
    • In the meantime, add just enough water to another pot so it just covers the bottom. Add in 1 egg and bring to a boil and cook for 7 mins.
    • To make the salmon flakes, marinate salmon in 1 tbsp each of soy sauce, mirin, and sake.
    • Broil the fish on high for 6 mins, then tear the flesh up with a fork and finish cooking on a pan until the flakes are nice and crunchy.
    • To serve, peel the egg and place on top of porridge. Sprinkle on some furikake, and top with salmon flakes.

    FYI: Most of my recipes tend to have an Asian flavor profile to it because it just suits my taste. If you have suggestions of what I should use next in a recipe, leave them in the comments 🤗
