In a small bowl, combine the sliced pork with light soy sauce, cornstarch, ground white pepper, and sesame oil. Mix thoroughly and set aside to marinate.

Reduce the heat to low, cover with the lid slightly ajar, and let it simmer for about 60 minutes.

ملاحظة الطاهي: Stir the congee every 15 minutes, scraping the bottom of the pot to prevent the rice from sticking and burning.
