Method
- 1
Put the long grain rice and chicken stock in a large pan and bring to the boil.
- 2
Turn the heat down to a gentle simmer and cook for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the rice has broken down into a thick porridge.
- 3
Mix the pork mince with the light soy sauce, then stir it into the congee in small clumps and simmer for 8 minutes, until the pork is cooked through with no pink remaining.
- 4
Stir in the white pepper and season with a little salt, adding a splash of water if the congee is thicker than you like.
- 5
Ladle into bowls and scatter generously with the roasted peanuts and spring onions.
- 6
Finish with a drizzle of the sesame oil to serve.
