There are a lot of people out there who don't have the opportunity to eat well. They also eat irregularly. Not necessarily able to eat 3 times in one day.
Sometimes people who overeat just simply leave their food behind as if they don't understand how hard it is to get food.
So once there are leftovers in my kitchen, as much as possible I reprocess them. Usually, after the moment of eating is over, I look back at what food is left, and can still be processed. If it is not possible, for example, a mixture of green leaves, I will also give the mixture of green leaves to my livestock such as chickens and ducks.
This time I will share how I process leftover red bean porridge. On the last day when the red bean porridge was made and I realized our family couldn't afford it, I immediately put the leftovers in the refrigerator.
Then the next morning I reprocessed the leftovers into a red bean soup. The menu is almost similar, but honestly, I prefer the red bean soup that I made from the leftovers. Stay tuned!
THE INGREDIENTS
Only leftovers are needed, with enough water to change the texture consistency of leftover red bean porridge. And, I added 100 ml of coconut milk.
Because the leftovers are already sweet enough, so I don't add any more sugar. So you can add additional sweetener if you have leftover porridge which becomes less sweet when water and cream or milk have been added during the process of processing the leftovers.
Adding pandan leaf or vanilla to create a pleasant fragrance. For sure this way will help leftovers have a new food soul. :)
COOKING INSTRUCTIONS
Transfer leftovers into a pan. Then add enough water, and pandan leaf. Stir well. Bring them to boil.
After boiling, then add coconut milk, or any choice of milk/cream according to your taste. Stir well and make sure you get the texture you want.
Bring them to a simmer, then turn off the heat. Stir briefly to remove any hot steam before transferring it to a blender or food processor.
Transfer the mixture to a blender or food processor. Add a little water or add more milk if their texture is still too thick.
Read bean soup is ready to be served warm. I love how this red bean soup is something new. Doesn't look like leftovers to be pitied. This meal brings its own character to enjoy. Luckily, I like this one. What do you think guys?
