Whitebaits For Porridge

Over the Deepavali holiday, I prepared the whitebaits that will be added into Ian's porridge soon. My mom sponsored the whitebaits, which is not as saltish as ikan bilis.

First, wash the whitebaits and put into a wok to fry, using low heat. No oil is required. Keep on stirring to prevent the whitebaits from sticking onto the wok. Fry until crispy and slightly yellow in colour.


Put the crispy whitebaits into the blender.


Blend until it is of a very fine powdery texture.


The volume of the powder is only about half of the original whitebaits. Next time round, I will blend in greater quantities!
