How To Make Congee with Soy Eggs
Breakfast bowls are really convenient because all you have to do is literally toss together the ingredients in a bowl, and you’ve got yourself a hearty breakfast.

There are also vegetable and burrito bowls, after all. You’ll find them all in this collection of breakfast bowl recipes!
Serves:
Ingredients
- 1 cup jasmine rice
- 8 cups chicken or vegetable broth
- 4 large eggs
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon ginger, grated
- 2 green onions, thinly sliced
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
-
Rinse the jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Drain well.
-
In a large pot, bring the chicken or vegetable broth to a boil. Add the rinsed rice and reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer for 60 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the rice has broken down and reached a porridge-like consistency.
-
In the meantime, prepare the soy-marinated eggs. Fill a small pot with water and bring to a boil. Carefully lower the eggs into the boiling water and cook for exactly 6 minutes for a slightly soft yolk or 7 minutes for a firmer yolk. Remove the eggs and immediately transfer to an ice bath to cool.
-
In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, sesame oil, and grated ginger. Gently peel the cooled eggs and place them in the soy sauce mixture. Allow them to marinate for at least 30 minutes, turning occasionally to ensure even coating.
-
To serve, divide the congee among 4 bowls. Top each bowl with a soy-marinated egg, a sprinkle of sliced green onions, and season with salt and pepper to taste.

Enjoy this comforting congee with soy eggs piping hot!
