2. Soak the rice for about half an hour.

3. Put the soaked lilies, lotus seeds, and red beans in an electric casserole, add water, and select the braised pork function to start working.

4. After the water in the electric casserole has boiled, add the rice.

5. Cover the pot and wait for the pot to open. After the pot is opened, remove the lid a little, leaving a gap, so that it is not easy to overflow the pot.

6. When the porridge is almost boiled, add the figs and red dates.

7. Boil until thick.

Tips:
1. If you have time, you can choose the soup function. With the braised pork function, the pot opens quickly.
2. Put the rice after the water is boiled to prevent the rice grains from getting into the pot. Stir the bottom of the pot after boiling for a while.
3. Put figs and red dates at the end to ensure the integrity and make the porridge more beautiful.
4. The thickness of the porridge is also related to the amount of rice. If the porridge is relatively thin after boiling for a long time, it means that there is less rice. You can add more and continue to boil it.
