4. Remove the chicken and shred it into small pieces.

5. Keep the broth in the pot.

6. Add the rice into the broth and cook on low heat.

7. Stir often so the rice breaks down and becomes soft and creamy.

8. Add ginger, garlic, shallots, salt, and black pepper.

Taste tip

If you want it extra tasty, use chicken stock instead of plain water. That gives the porridge a deeper, richer flavor.

Simple serving idea

Serve Bubur Ayam hot, with crunchy crackers on top for texture and a little chili sauce for heat.
