Servings: 4
Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 45 minutes
Total Time 50 minutes

Ingredients:

For the Congee:

  • 1 cup Jasmine rice
  • 4 slices ginger Julienned
  • 1 tablespoon fish sauce
  • 6 cup chicken stock
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • ½ tablespoon ground black pepper

For Garnish:

  • 1 pc poached egg
  • 2 pcs scallions chopped
  • 1 stick Yeoh Tiao Chinese fried dough (read note 1)
  • 1 tablespoon fried garlic or onions
  • 1 cup beef or pork (recipe below) minced
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoon Pork floss (Rou-Song 肉鬆) read note 1

For Minced Beef or Pork (optional topping):

  • 1 cup minced beef or pork
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
  • 1 pc bay leaf

Instructions:

For Instant Pot Congee:

  • Set the instant pot to saute setting and heat 1 tablespoon of oil, add minced garlic and ginger. Stir fry to get that aroma. Add the rice and stir for 1 minute.
  • Now, add the chicken stock and press the “porridge” setting and once it’s done, release the valve naturally.

For Toppings:

  • While waiting for the rice porridge to get cooked, prepare the toppings by sauteing your minced beef/pork, 1 teaspoon minced garlic, 1 bay leaf, 1 tablespoon oyster sauce, and black pepper to taste. Set aside.
  • Once the congee soup is done, you can add in your minced beef/pork, separating them in the soup so they don’t clump together.
  • Top with scallions or cilantro, fried garlic, poached eggs, You Tiao (optional), and Pork Floss. I grew up eating pork floss on EVERYTHING, even out of the jar.
  • Serve immediately.

Notes:

1.) You can find Pork Floss and You Tiao at your local Asian stores.
