Cooking doesn’t need to be hard or complicated. Often, you're simply looking for a recipe that gets you most of the way there with minimal effort, hence 80/20.
Welcome back to the series, sorry I haven’t posted in a while! I was traveling a lot in the last month but now we’re back, and today we have a delicious, hearty, and simple chicken congee that you can make all in your rice cooker. I think the prep time for this might be as low as 5 minutes!
I’m realizing how many dishes I use to dislike because my family prepared them really plainly. We’d have zero soup base hotpot (YEAH. as in PLAIN WATER), and also plain white congee. It took years to finally enjoy many of these dishes and with congee, the turning point was when I started working at my last tech job where we (very fortunately) had breakfast served in the mornings with eggs, sausage, bacon, and randomly… the most incredible chicken congee I ever tasted.
This is my easy version of that delicious chicken congee I had almost every morning!

Comfort Food w/ @crazythickasians
Congee represents a shared nostalgia for us—a dish we both grew up eating. Made up of only 2 ingredients, it acts as a blank canvas for an endless variety of toppings. Some global similarities include rice water (Ghana), juk (Korea), chao (Vietnam), lugaw (Philippines), and many more.
The beauty of congee is in its adaptability. Simply adjust the rice to water ratio based on the desired consistency. There’s no wrong way to enjoy congee!
Below is our base recipe for congee. Let us know how you’ll top your congee!
Ingredients:
1 cup rice (short grain and jasmine rice are popular but any rice will do)
8 cups water
Method:
Thoroughly rinse rice until water runs clear. Drain water.
Add rice into large pot and fill with water.
Close the lid and bring to a boil. Then adjust to medium heat.
Keep lid halfway open to prevent spill over. Lower heat if necessary.
Stir occasionally. Continue to cook for 30-40 minutes until rice has broken down.
Adjust consistency based on preference. Add more water if you prefer a soup-like texture, or continue to cook further if you prefer a risotto-like texture.
When ready to serve, season with salt and add on your favorite toppings and garnish.
Enjoy hot!

What is the ultimate Chinese comfort food that warms your heart and soul? 𝗖𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘂𝗿𝘆 𝗘𝗴𝗴 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗣𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗴𝗲𝗲! This has been a beloved dish since I was a child and so nourishing when you’re sick (like I am now 🤒). Why pay $9-$10 for a small serving, when you can use your Instant Pot or pressure cooker to make this within 30 minutes, yielding a huge pot of restaurant quality congee, which feeds my entire family for 2 mornings?

This is my take on CONGEE or Chinese Rice Porridge! 🥣
Ingredients:
- 1 cup jasmine rice
- 10 cups of water or chicken broth—you can use anywhere from 8-10 cups but I found 10 to be the best especially if you’re storing in the fridge
- 1 inch knob of ginger, peeled and cut into slices
- salt to taste
Toppings:
- drizzle of sesame oil
- 1 scallion, sliced
- sliced ginger
- soft boiled eggs or chicken
Directions:
- rinse rice well under running water until water runs clear
- add rice to a large pot along with the water or broth and sliced ginger, bring to a boil
- stir, bring down to a simmer and cook for 40-60 minutes with the lid partially on. traditionally you only stir once but if you’re anxious about the rice sticking to the bottom like me you can give it some stirs occasionally
- after 40 minutes, check the texture of the rice. if it doesn’t look like it’s breaking down, let it cook for the additional 10-20 minutes. if it does look like it’s started to break down, grab a whisk and whisk for a minute or two until the rice breaks down more and becomes a porridge texture
- salt to taste and serve in bowls along with your desired toppings of choice. I love a drizzle of sesame oil, grated fresh ginger and scallions!
*Makes: 4-6 Servings*
