CHICKEN CONGEE (RICE PORRIDGE)
Chicken congee (or rice porridge) is for us the ultimate comfort food. The flavours are nothing out of the extraordinary, but what always hits the spot is that comforting feeling that you get when you take a bite of the warm, soft, and savoury rice porridge.

Steps:
- To make the chicken, season the chicken thighs with some salt. In a pot, bring water to a boil and season it with salt. Add the chicken thighs into the boiling water and let boil for about 7-8 minutes, or until cooked thoroughly. Remove from heat and let chill. Shred the chicken by hand into fine, long strips.
- In a pot, bring 4 cups of chicken broth to a boil at high heat. When the broth is boiling, add the uncooked rice into the pot and stir constantly to prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom. Let the rice cook for 15 minutes while stirring occasionally. After 15 minutes, the rice should become fluffy and soft. Continue cooking the rice for another 10 minutes while stirring constantly. After 10 minutes, add another cup of chicken broth, stir, and cook for another 5 minutes. The porridge should have very soft, thick texture. If you want your porridge to more watery, you can add more chicken broth to your taste. Season with salt and white pepper to taste.
- To make eggs, place two eggs in a pot and fill up the pot with boiling water slowly until both eggs are fully submerged. Cover with lid and let cook for 15 minutes. Do not turn on the stove, the heat from boiling water itself will cook the eggs to a soft, half-cooked texture. After 15 minutes, transfer eggs into a bowl of cold water to stop it from cooking further.
- Transfer rice porridge into two medium-sized bowls. If porridge becomes too thick, add a little bit of hot water and stir. Crack an egg onto each bowl of porridge and top with the shredded chicken, fried shallots, green onions, soy sauce, and coriander.

Return stock to cleaned pot and add rice. Bring to a boil and stir. Reduce heat to low and simmer, covered until consistency of oatmeal, about 1 3/4 hours, stirring frequently during last 1/2 hour of cooking. (Congee will continue to thicken as it stands. thin with water if necessary.)
- Season congee with salt. Serve topped with chicken and accompaniments.

Steps:
- Rinse and drain the rice.
- Put the rice in a pot with the chicken stock and bring to boil. Give the rice a good stir, scraping the bottom of the pan to prevent sticking, then lower the heat and half-cover the pan. Simmer gently for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, stirring every 15 minutes, until the grains have burst open and you have a thick congee. Keep an eye on the pot to make sure the rice doesn't stick to the bottom. Toward the end of cooking, when the stock has become integrated with the rice and is the consistency of oatmeal, season lightly with salt to taste.
- Serve the congee with a sprinkling of soy sauce, spring onion and ginger and a few drops of sesame oil to taste.

RICE PORRIDGE (CONGEE) WITH CENTURY EGG AND PORK (OR CHICKEN)
I grew up eating a Filipino version of Congee called "Arroz Caldo". My grandmother would have lots of dark chicken meat in it and huge chunks of ginger that I would end up biting into (not fun when you're 7 years old). Since then my own kids have developed a love for the traditional Chinese-style congee (also called rice soup) they serve in restaurants, especially during cold Autumn and Winter days. Some people may be uneasy about using the 'century duck egg' (or 'thousand year old egg' is really just as egg that is preserved in salt, ash and lime) but don't judge it in it's unpeeled, chopped up state - added to the congee, it really adds a yummy complexity to this dish, even my 2yo daughter loves it. This recipe is for you if you want a warm, hearty, simple and economical meal. Enjoy! (note: I use leftover shredded chicken or pork but you can poach your own prior to making recipe, and use the ground white pepper - it really makes a difference!)

- Add the sesame oil and ground white pepper.
- Serve the congee in bowls and garnish with a tiny drizzle of the dark soy sauce (start with a tiny bit at first, add more later if desired) and garnish with some chopped green onions.
- Enjoy!
RICE CONGEE WITH CHICKEN
Sometime ago I saw a program on television where they made this with pork. The dish looked very interesting to me and healthy. I have made it now several times as a soup and added my own ingredients. This is what I found out about congee. It's a boiled rice porridge eaten by the Chinese for breakfast. In various areas they will add fermented bean curd, pickles or greens. In the South, meat, chicken, roast duck or fermented eggs are added. The rice will thicken the soup. I went for chicken and mushrooms plus some vegetables, I like to serve this soup/porridge with tea-marbled eggs(recipe #111738) Depending on availabilty and price I do sometimes substitute mushrooms for the shiitake My husband likes the congee sprinkled with chilies for an extra kick. If you make this in advance it will probably be thickened when you reheat it, just add some water or chicken stock.

- Make broth: Although you could use canned broth instead, you can make your own with the bones from the same chicken that supplies meat for the congee. Separate wings from chicken and pull meat from bones; discard skin. Set bones and wings aside and shred meat into bite-size pieces.
- Heat oil in a medium pot over medium heat. Add garlic, chopped onion, and carrot and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add wings, bones, peppercorns, and bay leaves, along with enough water to just cover bones (4 to 5 cups). Bring to a boil, then lower the heat to a slow simmer. Skim the pot after 15 minutes and occasionally throughout cooking. Simmer stock 2 to 3 hours, then strain through a fine-mesh strainer.
- Meanwhile, make porridge base: Bring 10 cups water to a boil. Whisk in jasmine and sticky rice. Reduce heat to low and simmer, covered, stirring every 5 minutes, until rice looks like loose cooked oatmeal, about 45 minutes. Set aside 6 cups.
- Bring a medium pot of water to a boil and carefully add eggs. Lower heat to a simmer and cook eggs 8 minutes, then plunge into an ice water bath. When they're cool, peel.
