Wash the rice thoroughly under running water.
In a large pot, add rice and water or chicken broth and bring it to a boil.
Reduce the heat and cook slowly while stirring occasionally until the rice becomes soft and porridge-like.
Add minced garlic and salt, then mix well to enhance the flavor.
Continue cooking until the porridge reaches a smooth and thick consistency.
Pour the porridge into a serving bowl and top it with shredded chicken.
Add soy sauce and fried shallots on top before serving. Serve hot for a delicious Indonesian breakfast.
