Congee / Jook

One of the easiest and most healthy meal, which can be eaten anytime of the day! This Chinese traditional breakfast recipe, is enjoyed equally by all members in a family, even by infants. As it is very easy on the tummy, porridge is also often prepared and served during convalescence from illness. A warm bowl of congee, is easy to make and serves as a nutritious and hearty breakfast in winters.

It taste good and helpful when your digestive system wants some break.

I love dim sum and my husband loves congee. So I decided I would make him some in the instant pot. Chillies in oil, sesame seasoning and voila.

Bitter Melon is nutritious, but has a strong flavor. It's the main reason why I believe mixing it with this specific comfort food dish COULD help a person overcome a cold.Take note that I am using a YumAsia brand rice cooker that has a porridge option. So how I am making this dish will be different from how you will be able to make it.I'm honestly posting this so that I remember how I made it when I get sick again~

Great Asian-style porridge, perfect for chilly mornings.

Another hybrid I been wanting to try. Congee rice porridge, sometimes served with pork flops and egg for breakfast. Poke is a rice bowl served with grilled meat and vegetables. Every flavor represented.
