Rainy weather comfort food: Porridge, innards and herbal soup

Tommy

When it’s cold and damp in humid Singapore, the inertia to leave home in search of comfort food is real. Don’t let the rainy weather dampen your spirits though! The silver lining’s in food that’s best savoured during rainy weather. Bundle up and head to the nearest Feng Xiang outlet to enjoy a warm bowl of fried porridge or herbal bak kut teh soup that’s sweather.

 

Mixed Pork Organ Fried Porridge

There’s no other comfort food that’s quite like porridge, Klang-style! Fried porridge originates from the Klang region in Malaysia, but its enjoyment is heartily shared by locals here too. The rice porridge is tenderly cooked in pork bone stock, before being fried in a wok for that smoky ‘wok hei’ aftertaste. Bits of shrimp and cuttlefish are added into the frying mix, and the final icing on top comes in the form of crispy pork lard and fried shallots. *chef’s kiss*

 

The main ingredients of our fried porridge are aplenty and come in several variations. From thinly sliced pork fried porridge and minced pork fried porridge to sliced fish fried porridge, you’ll be spoiled for choice while deciding on your rainy day feast.

 

For the truly adventurous who aren’t at all squeamish when it comes to innards, we highly recommend our traditional mixed pork organ fried porridge. It’s organ galore; consisting of liver, intestines and stomach. Liver is particularly nutritious – revered as “nature’s multivitamin” for its abundance of vitamins and protein. 

 

Sink into Feng Xiang’s fried porridge and feel warm and fuzzy inside, even as the sky pours outside.

 

Herbal Bak Kut Teh Soup

Craving for something with a nutritious broth that’ll soothe the soul? Our herbal bak kut teh soup is one of Feng Xiang’s most revered signature dishes – while it can be eaten during any occasion, this soupy delight is best enjoyed during the cold and wet weather. Boiled for long hours with numerous herbs and spices, each spoonful of its healthy and rich soup will leave you wanting more. 

 

Juicy slices of pork ribs, mushrooms, tau pok, and bean curd skin go into a filling bowl of Klang-style herbal bak kut teh as its main ingredients. For additional taste, consider adding on a crispy you tiao for dipping into your soup, or crunchy, fresh lettuce for a healthier meal. Whether you choose to indulge in your meal or be more health-conscious, this herbal bak kut teh soup will keep you toasty against the cold rain.
