Ingredients
- 1/2 cup glutinous rice
- 2 tablespoon black rice or any other type you prefer
- 1 tablespoon peanut
- 5 Chinese dried red dates
- 1 tablespoon mung beans
- 1 tablespoon red beans
- 1 tablespoon corn flakes
- 10 dried Longan
- 1/2 tablespoon walnut
- 6-10 cups of water depending on your cooking ware
Instructions
High pressure cooker:
- Pre-soak peanuts, mung beans and red beans, walnut for at least 4 hours and soak the rice for around 1 hour too. Place all the ingredients and pour around 6 cups of water. Cook for around 30 minutes until pressure mode or select beans option.
Cup of Yum
For pot without pressure mode:
- Pre-soak beans overnight and soak rice for at least 4 hours. Mix all the ingredients with 10 cups of water. Cook with strong heat to a boil, turn to low heat, cover and simmer for 40 to 60 minutes until all the ingredients are soft to taste. Leave a gap between the pot edge and cover to prevent the boiling congee from blowing out.
- Serve hot, optionally with a sweetening like sugar.
