Directions
For the porridge, add oil to a medium saucepan over medium heat and sauté onions for 3 minutes or until golden brown. Add rice to the pan and continue to sauté for an additional 2-3 minutes or until the rice starts to brown slightly. Add stock, Thai seasoning, soy sauce, and pepper to the pan. Bring to a simmer, cover, and cook for 30 minutes. Stir in milk and honey; cook for another 5 minutes, stirring frequently to avoid scorching. Remove from heat.
For the portabella, heat a medium sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and oil and cook for 3-4 or until well-caramelized. Remove from heat. To serve, spoon porridge into a wide, shallow bowl, top with portabellas, sprinkle with sesame seeds, and garnish with fresh cilantro.
