Ingredients: pumpkin, sweet potato, rice and red dates.

Exercise:

1, wash rice, wash red dates, put them in a rice cooker and add water to boil.

2. In the process of cooking rice and red dates in the rice cooker, peel the pumpkin and sweet potato, clean them and cut them into small pieces.

3. Then steam on the pot for about 20 minutes. After steaming, put it into different small pots or bowls (according to the quantity) and stir it into mud.

5. After boiling, continue to cook for 3 minutes before serving.

Tips:

1. Add a proper amount of water to the sweet potato paste before putting it into the pot, and stir it into a paste again, so that the sweet potato paste will become a complete paste when put into the pot, otherwise it will condense into a small knot, which will affect the taste.

2. If you want this pumpkin made in sweet potato porridge to be sweeter, you can also add a crystal sugar when cooking.
