Read the passage. What's the writer's favourite food memory?
Mine start with my mother. She can do magic in the kitchen: tofu and beef become red, hot mapo tofu; carrots and mutton become lovely dumplings; a big fat hen becomes a pot of warm chicken soup; even eggs and green onions become wonderful pancakes. I always grow hungry thinking of them!
But my favourite food is porridge. I often wake up to the smell of porridge. Sometimes, it's sweet eight-treasure porridge.
Read the passage. What's the writer's favourite food memory?
Other times, it's porridge with pork and thousand-year-old eggs. Each kind of porridge tastes great in its own way. When I fall ill, my mother always makes plain rice porridge for me.
