Answers:
Basic Recipe
1 cup long grain rice
9 cups of chicken broth or water or half broth and water.
Bring to boil, turn to medium-low and simmer until thick.
Leave the lid slightly ajar so the congee doesn't boil over.
It takes about 3 hours.
Notes***
You can add leftover turkey + the carcass to the cooking liquid. Very common especially after Thanksgiving here in the USA.
Garnishes for the finished congee...
green onions
shredded lettuce
chinese parsley (cilantro)
oyster sauce
soy sauce
toasted sesame oil
chili oil or chili sauce
More exotic garnishes
Boiled Gingko
Fried Dough sticks
salted duck eggs
preserved vegetables
peking duck
roasted pork
