Bubur Asyura Sarawak

Ashura day fell on 10 Muharam on Muslim calendar i.e. it was Tuesday 6th December this year. The common culture in Malaysia was to fast on the day & serve Bubur Ashura to neighborhood to denote the historical significance during the war. Food were scarce during the war,  so everybody donated whatever they had which made up of wheat, barley, assorted beans, corn, etcs & cooked them jointly into Bubur Asyura. Various places in Malaysia will have different version, some are sweet and some are savoury; on the other hand whilst some are in porridge form, some others are in pudding/kuih form. In Sarawak, typically are savoury in porridge form.

I received a bowl of Bubur Ashura from thoughtful CikTie.... first time I tried the Sarawak version & wow... I like it a lot - really tasty & filling. Thanks so much for being thoughtful always.

According to CikTie, she mix beef soup, rice, barley, green/red beans....(CikTie anything else...? I forgot what you told me) into a slow cooker.
