This recipe is the ultimate to help reduce food waste. After planting rice on a farm in Laos and seeing the process of harvesting and polishing the rice, I swore to never waste a grain of rice again. I am definitely not perfect and there are times the last spoons of rice go to waste. But I love making rice porridge the next morning for breakfast with any rice leftover. It’s even better made with coconut milk as it is so creamy and delicious.
