This Mushroom Congee (aka mushroom rice porridge) is an easy and simple dish that's comfort in a bowl. It's flavorful in its own right but great when paired with toppings or side dishes. The perfect meal for colder weather!
Slice the mushrooms, ginger and garlic and add to a pot.
Rinse the uncooked rice and add to the pot and pour in the water.
Over medium heat and with the lid on, bring the water to a boil and stir.
Turn the heat down to medium low and let it continue cooking. Cook with the lid on for faster cooking. Stir occasionally to ensure the the rice doesn't stick to the bottom and clump.
Once it's halfway cooked, add the fish sauce and pepper. Stir and let it continue cooking until it reaches congee/rice porridge consistency.
Once it's cooked, serve in a bowl and add your desired toppings/eat with side dishes. Enjoy!
