Sweet Potato Porridge (Cháo Khoai Lang)

This Best Vietnamese Food is nostalgic because it is what I used to have regularly during my schooling days. Sweet Potato Porridge (Cháo Khoai Lang) is basically an “enhanced” porridge with the former adding sweetness to the porridge. It is, however, not eaten on its own. Rather, some side dishes compliment this simple but delicious porridge such a snack or minced pork balls with preserved black beans. I usually have 2 bowls of this as the sweet potato somehow makes the porridge more appetizing.
 

 

My mother usually uses the yellow-colored sweet potato, probably because that is what is commonly found in the market. I think any type of sweet potato would do the trick. Try to get those which are less fibrous as it can be an irritant to have them in your mouth. This Best Vietnamese Food is very simple and everyone can cook it. You just add sweet potatoes into the porridge as you cook it.
