2nd Best Thing About Thanksgiving - Leftovers

Turkey Sandwich followed by Jook -- Chinese rice porridge - YUM!

Recipe for Jook:

1 Medium/Large Onion
3 or 4 Stalks of Celery, cut in thirds
Turkey Bones
1 Preserved duck leg or ham
1 1/4 cup of washed rice
1/2 cup lean pork
3 or 4 pieces of dried scallops (optional) - soak for 1 hour
chong toy - preserved vegetable (optional) or a small piece of stem, soak for 15 min
2 or 3 scrambled eggs
season to taste, salt or soy sauce

Method: Cook turkey bones, onions, celery, preserved duck (or ham), chong toy, scallops in a pot of water. Cover all ingredients with water and bring to boil, them simmer for 2 to 3 hours. Drain in collander. Place stock in pot, and pick out turkey meat and shred (to be added again later). Dispose of bones, etc. Add washed rice to stock, bring to boil, stirring occasionally so that rice does not stick to bottom of pot. In meantime, add chopped lean pork to the rice, making small pieces to disintergrate into soup. Cook altogether until mixture thickens. Add shredded turkey later on. Cook together for 1 1/2 hour until desired consistency. Stir 2 or 3 scrambled eggs briskly at the very end. Also add water anytime you think the mixture is getting too thick. Season to taste.

This stuff is the bomb for shizzle my nizzle.
