- Add 1 cup of cold water and crumble up the fermented dough to make a smooth paste. Place over high heat and bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally.
- Add 2 cups of boiling water to the pot and bring to a boil, stirring continuously. At this point, the mixture may form lumps. Whisk lumps out to keep the porridge smooth.
- Add a pinch of salt, the ground cloves, ginger, and chilli powder. Stir and allow to simmer for 10 minutes over low heat.
- When ready to serve, add the desired amount of sugar, stir and enjoy.
