Delicious and simple flavors with intricate preparations

This mung bean porridge dish is a common dish, closely associated with many generations of Hanoians. Although it is cooked with extremely simple ingredients such as mung beans, lentils, rice, and pickles, the cooking process is quite intricate.

The porridge is quite thin but each grain of rice is still soft and smooth. Even when continuously placed on the stove, the porridge is not too hot or has a burnt smell due to long cooking. The porridge has a mild taste, and it is meant to be eaten with the accompanying dishes.
