Instructions

  1. Assemble all your ingredients. Ready, set, go!
  2. Rinse the rice thoroughly, add ½ teaspoon of salt and let marinate for 30 minutes.
  3. Wash the chicken with ½ tablespoon kosher salt and a lime wedge, then rinse thoroughly with cold water.
  4. Place the chicken, bruised ginger, bruised lemongrass, onion, water, rinsed rice, salt, fish sauce, and salt in a pressure cooker.
  5. Seal with the lid and cook for 45 minutes on high pressure.
  6. After cooking, let the pressure release naturally for 15-20 minutes. This prevents the rice from clogging up the vent. Then open the lid and release the rest of the pressure.
  7. Remove the chicken, lemongrass, onion, and ginger from the chicken porridge.
  8. Set the chicken aside and tear off as much of the meat as you will use and set aside.
  9. Assemble the Vietnamese congee: pour some rice porridge into bowls, leaving enough room for all the toppings. Top with shredded chicken, cilantro, green onions, a little bit of ground white paper, and optional roasted peanuts, Chinese donuts, bean sprouts, and fried shallots or onions.
  10. Squeeze a little lime juice on top for that tang and enjoy!
