Minced Chicken with Salted Mustard and Tomatoes

There’s no better time than now to have simple porridge fare with a dish like this cos’ most of us would probably be feasting to our tummies’ content from next weekend onwards as it’s going to be the Lunar New Year!

I don’t really eat salted or pickled vegetables that much because of their high amount of preservatives and sodium but I do like them with plain rice congee every now and then. Normally, we would use pork (or pork belly) to go with salted mustard but I prefer a leaner meat so I used minced chicken instead. It’s up to you, whichever meat you pick cos’ this recipe is pretty versatile. I had even experimented with crumbled batang (spanish mackerel) fish meat and it worked fine as well.
