Three of my favorite foods: noodles, soups & seafood.

So, it’s no surprise that I love fish porridge (congee) – thick rice soup with fish slices.  I have been craving for it for a while now. Finally, on a chilly rainy day, my wish came true.

Fish porridge, so satisfying on a chilly rainy day. I like my soup steamy hot; burn my mouth kind of hot!!

Ingredients: fish (I used tilapia), seaweed, rice, water, ginger, onions, scallion, fish sauce, salt, white pepper, sesame oil, fried garlic

1 part rice: 8 part water

I didn’t follow a recipe. Most Chinese know how to make fish porridge by heart. The ingredients are totally flexible.

It would help if you have a pressure cooker. 🙂 It cuts the cooking time in half.

Put the fish last because it cooks fast.

SO SATISFYING! I over-ate as usual!
