Ingredients:

2 tbs toasted black sesame seeds
3 tbs sweet rice flour
1½ cup water
½ ts salt
for garnish:

a dried jujube with the pit taken removed
a few pumpkin seeds
Directions:

Toast sesame seeds

Put the black sesame seeds into a strainer and scrub them under running water.
Drain the seeds and put them in a thick bottomed pan or pot. Stir with a wooden spoon over medium high heat for a few minutes.
When the sesame seeds start popping, lower the heat. Keep stirring until they're crispy.
Make porridge

Blend the toasted black sesame seeds with ½ cup of water for 1 minute until the mixture is smooth.
Add 1 cup of water to the mix and blend it again for another minute.
Put 3 tbs of sweet rice flour into a thick bottomed pot. Mix in the sesame mixture with a wooden spoon.
Bring to a boil. Keep stirring over medium high heat for about 2 to 3 minutes until it bubbles.
Lower the heat to a simmer. Keep stirring for 3 to 5 minutes. The porridge will thin out a little and become shiny.
Add ½ ts salt and mix it well. Transfer to a serving bowl.
Garnish with a jujube and pumpkin seeds (or pine nuts) and serve warm.
