Kimmy, this would go very well with porridge and it is so simple to cook. Vegetarian intestines is ideal as I am quite geli of the real one unless if someone else cooks for me hee..hee...

Hi Phong Hong, yes cooking with the real one is quite tedious and not that healthy ingredient too. The vegetarian one is made of wet glutton. It is healthier and tasty if you season it a little. I had this dish with porridge.
