3. Place fish slices in a bowl, add spoonful of tapioca starch and salt and mix.
    4. Put ginger, a spoonful of coconut oil and Bok Choi into the rice porridge which has cooked for 40 minutes and stir together. Cook for 5 more minutes and the aromatic fish and vegetable rice porridge is ready. 
Ming likes to eat vegetarian food, I give bowl you see here on the left. My son likes to eat fish, so I'll put cut sashimi, one minute from the pot into cilantro - see bowl on right. Look!! Yimin Love it, do you want to eat it? Hurry a bowl to your parents, to your children, or for yourself to warm your tummy and warm your heart.
