De bereidingswijze

Stap voor stap

1. 1

   Combine the brown rice, vegetable broth, ginger, garlic, salt, and black pepper in a large pot.

   Ongeveer 2 min

   Tip van de kok: Rinsing the rice helps remove excess starch and ensures a cleaner congee.

2. 2

   Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally.

   Ongeveer 5 min

3. 3

   Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer for 45-50 minutes, or until the rice is tender and has started to break down.

   Ongeveer 50 min

   Tip van de kok: Stir occasionally to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking. Add more broth if the congee becomes too thick before the rice is fully cooked.

4. 4

   Stir in the full-fat coconut milk, soy sauce, and sesame oil.

   Ongeveer 1 min

5. 5

   Continue to simmer, uncovered, for another 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the congee to thicken to your desired consistency.

   Ongeveer 10 min

   Tip van de kok: If you prefer a thinner congee, add a little hot water or vegetable broth until it reaches your preferred consistency.

6. 6

   Remove the ginger slices before serving.

   Tip van de kok: The ginger has infused its flavor, so it's not necessary to eat the slices.

7. 7

   Ladle the congee into bowls and garnish with chopped scallion and cilantro.

   Ongeveer 1 min

   Tip van de kok: Serve hot and enjoy immediately.
