#CA26 - At times this is a great comfort meal for me of brown rice and chicken congee with some nuts thrown in. Wholesome and nutritious, you can enjoy it anytime of the day. This simple meal can never be so easy, as very few ingredients are required to dish out this amazing and healthy one-pot wonder. Garnish as desired with your favorite toppings and enjoy. I served with some chopped coriander leaves, fried onion, red chili flakes, boiled egg and lime wedges. You may also drizzle some soy / chili / tomato sauce for added flavor.
