Sweet Fragrant Wheat and Corn Porridge

I used to cook  Sweet Fragrant Wheat (Gandum) Porridge for the past 1 month as I would try to use up all the grains or beans that I have bought.  I don't like to keep the balance of it for too long as I tend to forget about it and at the end it would be ended up in the garbage bin!  Out of sight, out of mind!  That's me... but don't get me wrong.  I am not referring to friends but only to those ingredients that were being stored away from my sight.  Don't worry, you all are always on my mind. 
This time, I added corn kernels to it as I noticed that I still had 1 ear of miserable corn sitting in the fridge.  Give this a try and you will love it :)

Ingredients :
- 3/4 cup of wheat/gandum (washed)
- 1 ear of corn  (washed, and cut the kernels into a bowl)
- a bunch of pandan leaves/screwpine leaves
- 100ml of coconut milk/coconut milk
- sugar (to taste)
- a dash of salt (to taste)
- 2.5 litres of water
Method :
1) Fill water in a pot and add drained wheat and corn kernels.  Boil over high heat for 20 minutes. 

2) Then, lower the heat, add pandan leaves and slow boil for another 1 hour or until the wheat and corn kernels are cooked and expanded.
3) Should you need to add extra water in between, be advised to add only hot boiling water.
4) Add sugar and let it simmer for a while.
5) Lastly, add santan and keep stirring. Season with a dash of salt.
6)  Serve hot.
Serve this yummylicious dessert as your breakfast or tea time.

    Hi Ivy,
    I have eaten this tong shui with corn, many years ago, in a restaurant. And have not eaten it since then, in fact, have totally forgotten about it until now! Thanks for the reminder, one day I'll make this for my kids.
    Have a great Sunday!

    Hi Ivy, I know what u mean abt the ingredients being out of sight. I sometimes forget that I've bought something and then the next time I look, it has gone out of date and into the bin. Your wheat porridge looks deliciously warming. :)

    halamak! akak baru berangan nak buat bubur jagung ni, tapi nak campur ngan kacang merah and pisang nipah! LOL..
    agak2 sedap tak ek? sekarang ni kepala akak asyik nak memandai2 jer bila masak...keh3

    eh, you pun sama macam akak lah! tak suka simpan balance lama2 sebab selalu lupa, sedar2 dah keluar cendawan (ni makanan dlm tin la)...tapi cendawan tu tak boleh buat sup punya! hahaha...membazir jer kan?
