Sweet Pumpkin and Red Bean Porridge Recipe That Surprised the Production Staff

Soak the red beans in water for two days. According to the recipe, all grains should be soaked before cooking.

Parboil the soaked red beans once and discard the water.

Rinse the parboiled beans thoroughly until the water runs clear.

Place the rinsed beans in a pot with fresh water. Add a piece of kombu to help balance the dish.

Boil the red beans until they are more than halfway cooked.

When the beans are almost fully cooked, add salt. Do not add it too early, as it can prevent the beans from cooking properly.

Add diced sweet pumpkin to the pot.

Continue to boil until the sweet pumpkin is cooked through.

Once everything is fully cooked, the porridge is ready to be served.
