Ingredients
Jasmine rice 1 bowl
Fresh prawns 50 g
Squid 50 g
Minced pork 50 g
Carrots 50 g
Seasoning powder 1 tablespoon
Sesame oil 4 drop
Spring onions 1 stalk
Ground pepper 5 g
Implementation Steps
01
Cut the squid into small pieces or dice it, depending on what your family likes.
Vegetables: wash the carrots and spring onions and chop them finely as usual.
Now cook the rice: put the rice in a small pot and cook it as you normally would.
02
When the rice is cooked, add a few drops of sesame oil to the pot.
Keep it over medium heat and stir the rice well.
Then add the carrots and keep stirring, followed by the prawns and squid.
03
Add about 3 bowls of cold water to the pot over high heat and stir so the ingredients blend with the water. After about 15 minutes, turn the heat down low so the congee becomes soft and tender.
Add 1 tablespoon of seasoning powder and taste.
04
Fresh seafood congee is an ideal family breakfast. It's a nourishing dish for anyone recovering from illness, and very good for growing children.
When the congee is soft and smooth, turn off the heat, ladle it into bowls and invite the family to dig in.
Good luck!
