Korak po korak

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.
Oko 5 min
Napomena kuhara: Slicing the pork when it's partially frozen can help you get thinner, more uniform slices.
2
Place the rinsed rice and water in a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven.
Oko 1 min
3
Bring the pot to a rolling boil over high heat, stirring once or twice.
Oko 10 min
4
Reduce the heat to low, cover with the lid slightly ajar, and let it simmer for about 60 minutes.
Oko 1 h
Napomena kuhara: Stir the congee every 15 minutes, scraping the bottom of the pot to prevent the rice from sticking and burning.
5
While the congee simmers, prepare the century eggs, ginger, and scallions for the congee and for garnish as specified.
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.
Oko 2 min
Napomena kuhara: The congee should be at a gentle simmer when you add the pork to cook it quickly and keep it tender.
7
Once the pork is no longer pink, stir in the chopped century egg and the julienned ginger.
Oko 1 min
8
Continue to simmer for another 5-10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Oko 5 min
9
Stir in the salt, taste, and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Oko 1 min

Oko 1 min
