i thot porridge and congee are the same, but the stickiness marks the difference..

from my understanding, u can still see grains of rice, or rather the shape in porridge;

for congee, u use stock to cook the rice and with constant stirring to make sure the rice dun stick at the bottom of the pot...and after 6 hours, you have your congee....

I think if made of oatmeal
= oatmeal porridge

If made of rice
= rice porridge.

Jamie Oliver even came up with something called "pukkolla"; by the sound of it do you think it is edible?

congee pronunciation
= /corn-G/
= I think just a term restaurants use so that they can sell them at $8 a bowl; because some people cannot pronounce it mah...

My favourite is cantonese G-Yoke-Chok with minced meat, liver and egg. $2-$3 type at the market... yum...

Or plain one, can eat with yu-sang... yum...

I also like TeoChew hhh-mue, sometimes, yum...

cannot find drooling smiley, so just this Cool
