Decision Making and Planning

Choice of Dish
I chose to make Fish Porridge Soup as my dish. This idea came from my mum, who cooks porridge whenever I was ill. I always enjoyed the meal, and it was the first dish that came to my mind while planning.

In the Task Analysis, I mentioned that my sister likes soup. Hence, making Fish Porridge Soup would be fine for her.

Modification/Substitution of Ingredients
I added more vegetables to make the dish more healthy. Instead of using white rice, I decided to use the healthier brown rice. It also gives the dish an interesting look.
