Hey Everyone! To get a less thick consistency, start with 1 1/4 cup of rice. But if you like it thick like this, then go for it! Enjoy!
Hi there! Just wondering where to get the Chinese donuts? And the peanuts?
Your local accents are very pleasant to hear. Thank you for sharing your recipe! Have a good 2019.
I got the Chinese donuts at a Chinese restaurant that serves congee but I think you can get them at some Asian stores which is where I bough the peanuts (T&T).
I think the reason why your congee is so thick is because you cooked the chicken with the rice together. The chicken may have absorbed some of the water. I would suggest to cook the rice and the chicken separately. You can then add the cooked chicken together after the congee is cooked.
Oh I like that you made a simpler version and a version if you want a broth.

It's that time of the year for Congee. Our family loves this dish. Dude is so lucky to have Flo. She's not only a great cook but she's gorgeous. Myself and 8 of my relatives have purchased her book. She's the best!!!!
Hi Flo - I have been watching your vids for years, and love all the hime-cooled Cantonese cooking. I missed my mom’s awesome culinary expertise! I love it too, when your husband “ 14:35 samples” and enjoys and offers his expertise on each meal. He’s funny and charismatic!
I love her husband/friend. He’s hilarious!
Thank for the idea of using the instant pot. My congee is chicken broth, shitake mushroom, preserved eggs, and white pepper.using left over rice. Green onion and Chile oil
Made this tonight. Used Aneto chicken broth rather than water. Amazing!!! Thank you Flo!!!
Thank you so much for sharing your heritage/childhood foods. It was so lovely to watch you cook this simple comfort food. Making my own right now. Thanks for the inspiration. 😀
Just wanted to let you know I watched this months ago and I make this at least once a week. It’s so so good! I love it!! 😍😍😍
OMG thank you do much for this recipe. My girls (3 & 6) absolutely love this and it is my go to when it's cold and/or I have no time. Plus it's sooo good.
This is absolutely delish. Ive made this 5 times.for me and family. We are in love with this recipe!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you.
Such a fun channel. I'm glad I stumbled on it. I'll have to watch back through a bunch more recipes. :)
Congee was the first thing I made in my instant pot. I like mine with chicken and fried garlic. My mother in law taught me how to make.
Thanks for sharing, Flo and Dude :D I just made this today. It is definitely comfort and "sick" food, but in a good way. So very soothing. Cheers !
Flo - so cute and friendly /like able. Dude - goofball ❤️
Love you guys!
When I first got instant pot I was cooking this dish accidentally 😉, my husband was complaining that I overcooked the rice. Now when that will happen I will just explain that it’s congee, he,he. I’m from Eastern Europe so that’s why I didn’t know about this dish. By the way, I really like your channel, thanks for educating us.
LOL! That's great! Thanks, Agata!
Very similar to the Filipino Arroz Caldo. But you add a potatoes and onions. And in my family that’s known as meal if your sick too. I’m happy to say I got your cookbook as a Christmas gift. I can’t wait to cook so much from it.
I imagine every culture has their own version of this! Hope you enjoy the cookbook, Karen!
Second time I have cooked this recipe and it's perfect! I lived in Guangzhou for 10 years and this is spot on!
Omg! I made this and it was so amazing!! So yummy! Thank you!!!
I just discovered your channel Flo, wow you are so awesome, I learned so much..thank you❤️
That dish is looking so delicious and I may end up making it. Thanks for sharing, and I wish you all a wonderful week.
Thanks, Sidney!
Just ordered you're cook book. Lots of good reviews. I've made this Chicken Congee so many times for family and friends. We loveeee it! I've told all my family and friends to order your book on Amazon.
LOL! Me too! It’s like my life is a gong show these days. 😉
I have saved recipes for congee before! It’s time to make it! Thanks for posting this! It makes so much sense to eat this when you are under the weather! Easy to digest, thanks again!💕
Thanks! Remember if it looks to thick for you, just use 1 1/4c rice. Let me know how it goes!
thanks for sharing the recipe. It looks amazing.
Looks good!!
I made this a few times... everyone loved it!
It's great on a cold morning!!
That looks delicious .. especially with that moist tender chicken! Yum! Must try this! Thanks Flo and Dude! ❤️
Thanks, Connie!
I need to go shopping tomorrow, I want to try this immediately!!!!!
Im so glad i found this, today I recently bruised my finger and wanted a anti-inflammatory food, that is easy to cook with instantpot youre a blessing! Keep posting! Subbed*
Happy New Year!!! Got my instant pot for Christmas but haven’t made anything yet ... I’m nervous and excited all at the same time! Lol love your videos and personalities... thank you!
Thanks so much! Happy New Year! Did you see my Get Started video? Just do it! 😉
Flo Lum I have not!!!! Searching for it now! 😍 thanks!
Made this, delicious!!
Happy and a Blessed New Year to you and your family!
The congee looks so yummy one of my favorite feel good comfort food.
Thanks, Lily! Hope you are well!
I love Congee when i just need something soothing, and not too hard on my stomach. Plus, i have memories of trying congee for the first time with my dad about 20 years ago.
It is super comforting and you're right, easy to digest

I look forward to making and trying this 💜
Thank you for this recipe!! We have been driving almost an hour to get this at a restaurant :).
I ate this as a sick child too. Never knew how to make it. The Instant Pot really makes it simple. Going to try this tonight. Thanks!
Great! Hope you like it!
I made that totally by accident last week!! I added broccoli for crunch, it was sooo good!
LOL! Too funny!
That looks like such a comforting dish. Count me in as one of those telling Dude to cool some of the heat off that serving right before he went in for the burn, lol. I'm going to cut your portions in half since it just us two and see how hubby feels about it. For his add-ons I'll include some crispy bacon bits, diced red onion instead of the green and red pepper flakes. I have to expand his culinary horizons in baby steps. I hope we don't need to use this as sick food and just as a warming meal after a cold winter's day. Thank you Flo and Dude!
Hey Flolum, hey Dude, I found your easypeasy chicken congee, it's gorgeous👌🏽my husband had a dental operation and your congee was the solution, thank you so much 🙏🏽I appreciate your work, I love to watch your videos❤ hope there will be lots and lots more 😅 best wishes from Northern Germany🙋🏼♀️
Thanks for sharing...looks delicious.
Thanks, Warren!
Thanks for the crockpot tip. I don’t have an instapot and was trying to find another way to cook it on gentle heat.
You guys are too cute! Adore your congee in a pressure cooker.
Ha ha! Thanks!
Hello Flo & Dude, that would definitely be a great meal while camping in the winter time, I can almost taste it now, glad to see another video, keep-em coming, can't wait to see what you are planning for the next recipe. God bless you and your Family always. 🇺🇸🇨🇦👼🏻
Thanks so much, Scott! The idea of camping in the winter... 🥶
Flo Lum I take it you're not a fan of camping in the winter. 😂😂😂
Hi You Guys! OMG that looks amazing, as Dude said "you sometimes find that restaurants cook it to an almost "porridge" consistency", I agree totally, I really find it very "gloopy" when they do that. Once again a super video, have a great evening.
Thanks so much, Michael!
Loved this recipe. Made it tonite. It was the bomb diggety!!!! Your husband is a crack up.
I’m going to try it with Cornish game hen. Maybe two. They’re pretty small. Looks delish!
Hi guys ive never heard yet of this menu im sturen it's yummy thanks flo lum till next time
I love rice porridge! And those donuts. Heavenly. This is one of my comfort foods too. My grandma would make us, kids, eat it especially when sick too. She would add an egg to it. By the way for the donut preparation, the slender pieces of dough are split in the middle by pressing a chopstick on them before frying. Carbs rule! Thanks for the shortcut congee recipe. Will try it for my family.
Yay! Hope you enjoy it! If you prefer adding an egg, I'd definitely start with less rice. Maybe 1 to 1 1/4 cup. Egg will thicken it as well.
Such a serious taste. Lol! Looking forward to the childhood favs!
LOL! Thanks, Paulla!
Your cookbook arrived today! A little warped from the weather but readable. I see the salted pork congee recipe! But I have to say it's so nice to watch the video :-). Can't wait to try the recipes!
Thanks so much, Lilian! Since it's Amazon, you can always return it and get a better copy. Hope you enjoy the cookbook!
That looks comforting. Might have to try this.
Spam congee for Dude?
Oh... don't encourage him, Jean!
My wife and I got an instapot for Christmas, and we've been bingeing all your videos!! =D
LOL! Hope you're enjoying them and that you'll get cooking soon!
Never had congee before, but it looks good!
I'll make some when it's cold outside, right now it's too hot.
AZ USA, gonna be around 100 degrees...
69 thumbs down? Seriously? Great channel, Flo and Dude! Recently subscribed. Love!
Thank you, thank you now I can try congee so simple will try but I have a 3 quart
Hi Flo! I may like Dude’s fried rice but my favorite of yours is chicken congee! Yes, we are all sick in California!!! Thanks Flo!
Oh no! Hope you all feel better soon!
This video was super timely as my wife and I are both sick this week and wanted something comforting for lunch. I made this with Calrose rice and it came out great. As an additional tip, it's not even necessary to defrost your chicken - I also used bone-in, skin-on thighs and put them in frozen. It probably took some additional time to come up to pressure, but after 30 minutes cooking and 30 minutes natural release, the meat came off the bone easily. Thanks and hello from Calgary!
So glad you enjoyed it! Hope you're both feeling better soon!
Thank you so much for this comment! I was about to ask if it was okay to use frozen chicken. :)
I like mine with East Indian pickles, either lime or mango...yum!
Interesting options!
Omg I love jook, especially Turkey jook after thanksgiving.
Yes!
Congee are my favorite breakfast while when I was growing up in Hong Kong.
I love Chinese breakfasts!
@@FloLum Yea....especially Dim Sum. 😋😋😋
Just bought your book!! I am so excited to try your dishes!
Question: Do you use the measuring cup given with the rice cooker? I mean is that what you use when you say 1and 3/4 cups of rice to 10 cups of water (in the instapot)?
Good to have this old standby on video, I use to always have this when I was young. Only when I was older that I appreciated the simple and low cost meal. One thing I always wondered is how restaurants make theirs so white in color.
Thanks, Garry! I think they start off with plain rice and water. If you use chicken broth, it won't be so white.
Chinese restaurants keep all the peeling of vegetables, boil them with pork bones to make the stock until they get a white milky look to them. (all the collagen from the bones and marrow.) They use that as the base for whatever jook they are going to make. The rice is added and cooked till they get a pasty consistency, then served with whatever kind of jook you ordered, pork, chicken, pig blood, fish, etc.
Evening all,yet again another brilliant vlog.....mmmmh sadly bring type 2 can only dream of the donuts!
Ooh dude ...the way you said it soaked right into the crevices!,,bring it on my man 😂😂💜👍
😂 That’s too bad, Bridget! But it really is a carbo bomb!
Thank you for sharing your video. I needed that. One other question, there is a porridge option, what is the difference between your recipe and the porridge option on the control panel of the pot one? I’m trying your recipe right now, ansiously waiting my results in about an hour. Your recipe looks so good!
@ 12:38-12:39 I lost it man...oh hot! 😂😂 Dude approved. Looks really good 😊 and have definitely seen the Chinese donut before. Flo thanks for another recipe and your kind words (last post...I know you won't remember).
LOL! 😂 Thanks, Esteban! (And for the record, I DO remember. 😉)
Where can I find a more detailed recipe for the instant pot chicken congee. I love watching your channel and easy to make recipes!
I love your channel. I’m from Chilliwack. I made the steamed pork pattie. It turned out awesome. My daughter’s boyfriend loved it and he’s a chef. We also had Yue Choy and rice. Sorry dude, we also had garlic mushrooms. Most enjoyable, thanks!
not gonna judge 😝
I had to come back and rewatch this today even though I have this recipe in the cookbook. Today is an 'I can't be bothered' day and the video was quicker than getting out the book. I've got an infected tooth making one whole side of my face painful so hopefully this will be comforting to eat and not make the tooth angrier. I'll be scaling down for my 3qt IP. Thank you for always being here with good food!
Oh so sorry, Molly! Hope this will provide some comfort!
Love show. Own two of your cook books. But travel often and the books don’t go with me. Time consuming to go thru your delightful banter to get the ratios and ingredient. That’s on me. But really it is easier having and ingredients list to refer back to. ❤ Everything you make I enjoy.
I make the Filipino version arroz caldo which I love very similar recipe thanks
We call those ‘Chinese donut ‘ Yu Char Kueh or Youtiou. Super yummy when dunked in hot soya bean drink as well. A must in Bak Kut Teh here in Malaysia
In a rice cooker, my mom sometimes add some salt marinated chicken on top to cook together ( the best is to cook with chinese sausage). Have you tried doing the same in an IP ? I haven't tried cus am not sure if the chicken will cook at the same time, etc . thx. Love the congee.
Want to try it instead of buying from hawkers. Do you think can set in the evening and have it done by next morning for breakfast?
We call this arroz Caldo in the Philippines. We use fish sauce, fried garlic, boiled egg, green onions as toppings.
I’m guessing that many cultures have their own version of this!
I really enjoyed your video and the two of you. Thank you for showing us how to make congee in the Instant Pot. It looked delicious! I'm wondering why you specifically cooked it on low pressure for 30 minutes instead of pressing the Porridge button on your Instant Pot?
Not everyone has an Instant Pot. This way everyone can understand which pressure and time needed for each recipe regardless of what electric pressure cooker they have.
Great video as always, thank you so much. Very tasty. Maybe some day you can try to make a (paella) is a Spaniard recipe, I like better the Cuban style. Is very expensive to make and time consuming. Thanks again.
You must not have seen this one: th-cam.com/video/ym_SGDHqmsA/w-d-xo.html I will have to try again and do a better job!
That is one LUCKY Dude! Yes, I have ongoing gustatory envy!
LOL, Noah! I think he is too! 😉
I'd like to say something about you cooking. You look great.!
Hi,
I like to make a comment about the Chinese donuts, l like it crispy so I usually would put the Chinese donuts in toast oven at low temperatures for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.
Our Nicaraguan version has the aromatics added before cooking: tomatoes, culantro, onion, pepper, garlic and it is a little soupy
Can you do a tradition Chinese New Years dish? Keep up the good work.
Will try.
Love your videos! Does the skin on the chicken add extra flavors to the end results?
Thanks! The skin will add flavour but you can remove it before putting in the pot, if you'd like.
Oily sticks, uses chopstick press down the center for the crease and to stick them together so they don't fall apart in the oil also its a baking powder recipe and very easy to make
For the “you tiao” - I believe the dough is actually two long slices that are “glued” together (with water) prior to frying. That’s why it looks like it’s split in the middle. :)
Ah! That makes sense!
We dip the Chinese donut into our congee to allow the congee to absorb into the donut before we bite into it. Yummy! As for the Chinese donut, it is lightly precut into 2 halves before they deep fry it. Therefore, you have 2 halves. Lastly, my father adds small tiny cuts of ginger into the congee. It gives it a really good flavor to it.
Great video, think I'll give this a go this week. Can I ask why you use low pressure?
I'm just under the impression that the rice is then not pulverized as much.
@@FloLum I see, thanks.
Looks yummy!! Can I use brown rice instead? Or a mix of brown and white?
I’m sure you can but I won’t be able to give any direction as we are not brown rice people. My guess is that you’ll need to cook it longer as it’ll take longer to break it down.
Do you have a good Fish Congee IP recipe? I love this one so much and make it often but love Fish ones as well
Not yet but my favourite is fish too. I always order it out and never make it. Why not? 🤔
Tell Dude he's a lucky guy!
优秀
I have this book, but I can’ t find the Chicken congee in the book!
Looking forward to seeing your childhood favourites!💜
Also, if you are interested, a tip I picked up, if you mix the green onions and corianders together, you only need to chop them once. Unless Dude and the kids don’t like them mixed😄
Thanks so much, Phuong! Some like cilantro, others don't, some like green onion, others don't. 🙄 But yes, that would be so much easier!
Hi Flo, I see other recipes use high pressure. What is the rationale of using low pressure instead of high pressure/porridge button? Appreciate the help
Sorry... I don't have a scientific answer. My thought is that it is more gently making the congee and not pulverizing the rice so much.
Is this 1 3/4 cup like regular measuring cup or chinese rice cup size? I like it just a bit less thick so I would use maybe 1 1/4 cup rice instead but wondering which cup you’re referring to
This was 1 3/4 cup regular measure which is why it was so thick. I don't know why I used a regular cup to measure, usually I use the rice cup. But yes... 1 1/4 cup regular measure would be about the same amount as 1 3/4 cup rice cup.
This video made me so homesick for Honolulu and the Gang. I would have this at lunch in Chinese establishment next to our work place. Some crew had burgers n fries.😂
how many does this serve? i made it and it is absolutely delicious!! the sesame oil takes it up a notch(:
Serves 4-6. So glad you enjoyed it!
Is the tape on the IP display just a videography thing, or is there another reason?
How come you don’t use porridge setting and just pressure cook?
Yum! My favorite jook is "pork blood jook" and "century egg jook". My bf, who's Caucasian, is very scared of both 😂😂😂. Anyway, I know I have been a long time fan, when I saw Dude took a huge spoonful of jook, and I yelled "omg, it's too hot" before he said it. 😝😝😝 Support u guys! 💖💖👍👍🎉🎉
😂 Too funny! I’m kinda with your bf... can’t say I am a fan of either of those jooks either. LOL!
Hahaha so good! 😂😂😂 it's OK, him and I won't have to fight over them 😬😬😬
The jook is super hot and the rice retains the heat. This is why, if you look at Chinese people eating it, they spoon jook in a circle along the top of the bowl, like they are skimming off fat.
Thanks for the video! Will this work in an ordinary pressure cooker using low pressure? I don't have an Instant Pot, but I do love my WMF pressure cooker, and this dish looks like it will be very comforting and easily digested (though I'll skip that evil coriander... 😂)
I don’t see why not. The Instant Pot is just an electric pressure cooker. Hope you like it!
@@FloLum Thank you! I might try it tomorrow!
@@FloLum I tried it today in my WMF pressure cooker, and it worked really well! I added a chicken stock cube instead of salt, since I only had chicken breast, and threw in a few dried shiitake mushrooms as well. It turned out really yummy!
👍🏼 Great!
Hi from the UK. I have an pressure king pro and cannot set low pressure. Would I just put it on rice mode ???
I don't know what rice mode means on your pressure cooker but you can still make this. Just cut the pressure cook time to 20 minutes and let it natural release. Hope that helps.
Evening fellow UK resident ❤Dorset UK here !!
Totally agree with flo on the settings,I have a baby IP and the 6qt,I am aware of the PKPRO ......it's all trial x error with these darn machines ,only you will be able to decide the best ....hope this helps my friend 👋
