Tips:
Wash the yam, cut into pieces, rinse the brown rice and coix seed, pour it into the pot, boil it over high heat and turn to low heat to cook. When the porridge is cooked until 6 mature, add the yam cubes and cook together, boil until the rice soup is thick and turn off the heat. The yam porridge should be in a state where the yam and the rice grains are not seen, and the two are closely intertwined. At this time, the mellowness of the yam is accompanied by the fragrance and rottenness of the rice grains, and it is warm and sweet. If you have time, it is recommended that you use a casserole cooker. If you are not free, a rice cooker is also very convenient.
