Red bean and barley porridge, I believe many people have eaten it. Today I recommend a modified version of red bean, millet, barley, oatmeal and red dates for health and weight loss porridge. For the hot summer, drinking a bowl of heat-reducing porridge will make your stomach feel very comfortable. .
Red beans have the effects of invigorating the spleen and stopping diarrhea, relieving swelling, replenishing qi and replenishing blood, but people with excessive urine should not eat it.
Mung beans, cold in nature, sweet in taste, have the effects of clearing away heat and detoxification, reducing heat and relieving summer heat, and are very suitable for consumption in summer.
Because barley contains a variety of vitamins and minerals, it can promote metabolism and reduce gastrointestinal burden. It can be used as a tonic food for patients who are sick or infirm after illness. However, barley cannot be eaten every day and has medicinal properties. Don't put too much volume at a time.
Millet is a healthy food. It can be boiled alone, or it can be boiled with dates, red beans, sweet potatoes, lotus seeds, lilies, etc., to make nutritious porridge with different flavors.
Oatmeal is rich in dietary fiber, can promote gastrointestinal motility, good for bowel movement, low calories, low glycemic index, lowering fat and blood sugar, and is also one of the high-end supplements.

Red Beans, Millet, Oats, Red Dates Porridge

1. Prepare the necessary ingredients (red beans), red beans, mung beans, coix seed, millet, oats, large red beans and small red beans. You can also put a few black beans if you have them.

Red Beans, Millet, Oats, Red Dates Porridge recipe

2. Put an appropriate amount of water in the rice cooker. If you plan to cook a little bit, discharge the rice cooker's 3/4 of the water for about 2 hours. If you want to cook for a shorter time, put half of the water for about an hour and a half. I like to drink thicker water and put less, like thinner I usually put more water in the summer. It’s too hot. I don’t like the beans. If you soak for 1-2 hours in advance, you can cook them for 1 hour and 10 minutes.

3. Pour in about one tablespoon (large) instant oats (if it is a large piece of hard oats, the taste will not be good and it will not be easy to cook)

4. For the red dates, I chose Ruoqiang Grey Dates from Western Region Meinong. The size of the dates is good, whether they are eaten dry or in porridge, they are better and sweet. I bought the Hetian jade dates before and I feel that the particles are too big and a bit dry.

5. Put in about 6 rock candy of this size according to your own taste. If you are not sure, you can put a little bit less before cooking and taste it. You can also add more and add more water. It will not taste good.

6. Select the steaming function on the lid of the rice cooker. My home only calls at 1 hour and automatically jumps to keep warm. Then repeat the selection of the steaming function.

7. When the rice cooker keeps puffing out bubbles

8. My home has a removable lid, you can put it horizontally and continue to cook it will not pop out

9. Or put a steamed vegetable basket on top. The two methods are not the same. The first one is slower to cook because if you add oats, it will come out anyway if you add a little more. This is also the method I slowly discovered after cooking many times. Otherwise You have to stay on the side of the rice cooker and keep stirring, it will be more painful

Tips:
1. The fear of using a rice cooker to cook porridge is that the porridge will pop out and it is troublesome to clean up, so putting a steaming basket after boiling can effectively prevent the porridge from overflowing. In fact, it is to reserve a certain amount of space for the rice cooker so that it can "gasp". The vent is too small
2. Regarding rice or oats, it is actually possible to put a small amount of rice + oats or a small amount of millet + oats. A small amount of rice + millet is very important to control the amount of rice. Once the rice is put in too much, it will feel like a porridge, so a little bit is enough Up
3. About putting several kinds of beans, in fact, you can put several kinds of beans, but if you often drink one kind of beans, there will be a tidal feeling in your stomach. Put some different kinds of nutrients that are balanced and not greasy. You can also put black beans, which are three beans to drink during the dog days. The practice of soup porridge, red beans, mung beans, cold black beans, can just neutralize
