Plain Congee

I had never heard the term ‘congee’ until we moved to Australia. In Singapore, we called it ‘porridge’ and ate it for breakfast, lunch, dinner or as a snack. Every family has their own version of this two-ingredient dish. Some like it soft and silky, others prefer it more like a wet rice. Some eat it plain, others pile it high with toppings. This is one of those lovely dishes where you can do no wrong.
