Family Style Dried Oyster Porridge

This is the porridge I cooked for dinner when we came back from 'Cheng Beng'.  Too tired [after a day out under the scorching sun] to cook anything much, this porridge served with Chinese cruellers [freshly fried, available in the evenings nearby my house] is more than satisfying, lol....

I prepared all the ingredients until step 2 before leaving for Cheng Beng.  Cool and kept it in the fridge.  Before meal time, I add water to the prepare rice, bring it to boil and cook... [hassle free cooking].  Takes about  30 minutes and the porridge is ready.
