I've always associated congee as something one takes when recovering from a fever, and I used to abhor the bland, tasteless and really boring stuff. And then there is the Superior Congee which just erases all your childhood memories of the usual rice porridge.
North Park's Superior Congee (P 176), loaded with tender shredded beef, fresh scallions, meatballs, slices of century egg, chunks of fish, and shrimps. The congee is scalding hot, and underneath all the toppings is a raw egg slowly being cooked.
Add some crisp wonton chips for a little crunch, some chili oil, and you're all set.
Filling and comforting, it's an awesome way to start the day.
Mix it up and enjoy...
...add some more crisp wonton chips, and more chili oil for some cooling heat. The subtle flavors of all the toppings blend beautifully in this truly "Superior" Congee. Have a great day everyone!

DeleteOh my... This really is the PERFECT rendition of the humble bowl of congee, can not be beat! All the goodness topped off with a drizzle of olive oil, spring onions and wonton crisps. Too good for words. YUM!
ReplyDeleteHi Winston, heaven in a bowl! Thanks for visiting!
DeleteI've always loved congee! Especially with century egg, scallions and fish sauce! That looks so good! Plus the raw egg slowly cooking inside... Mmmmm... I'd have this even if it's summer. Haha. Nice post. Mouth-watering and nostalgic. :D
