'Bubur Lambuk' is creamy porridge rich in spices and cooked in coconut milk. It tastes richer than the normal chicken porridge due to the coconut milk and selection of spices added to it. It's a favorite of many Singaporean during the month of Ramadhan and this is my favorite. My helper used to prepare this every time I felt unwell. Spoilt with all her yummilicious cooking!
Decided to make some today, since my husband and kids are unwell today. This is my first time trying to cook this bubur, tried and tested, alhamdthe kids and husband said, "sedap".
Do watch the video below :
