Valmistusohje

Vaihe vaiheelta

  1. 1

    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.

    Noin 5 min

    Kokin vinkki: Slicing the pork when it's partially frozen can help you get thinner, more uniform slices.

  2. 2

    Place the rinsed rice and water in a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven.

    Noin 1 min

  3. 3

    Bring the pot to a rolling boil over high heat, stirring once or twice.

    Noin 10 min

  4. 4

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

    Noin 1 t

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

  5. 5

    While the congee simmers, prepare the century eggs, ginger, and scallions for the congee and for garnish as specified.

  6. 6

    After an hour, the rice grains should be broken down and the congee should be thick. Increase heat to medium-low and add the marinated pork, stirring to separate the slices.

    Noin 2 min

    Kokin vinkki: The congee should be at a gentle simmer when you add the pork to cook it quickly and keep it tender.

  7. 7

    Once the pork is no longer pink, stir in the chopped century egg and the julienned ginger.

    Noin 1 min

  8. 8

    Continue to simmer for another 5-10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.

    Noin 5 min
