Basic Instant Pot Congee Recipe
Congee (pronounced con-gee) is a comforting Chinese rice porridge. Like chicken soup, it's the ultimate food when it's cold outside or you're feeling under the weather. This version is ready in about 30 minutes when done in a pressure cooker. Typically, the rice to liquid ratio is as follows: Thick: 1 cup rice to 8 cups liquid Medium: 1 cup rice to 9 cups liquid (we like this the best) Thin: 1 cup rice to 10 cups liquid
