Dried Oyster and Scallop Congee

Dried Oyster and Scallop Congee, also known as Hou Si Fan in Chinese, is a traditional breakfast dish that has been enjoyed in southern China for centuries.
This simple dish consists of rice that is slow-cooked in a large pot of hot water until it breaks down and forms a creamy porridge-like consistency.
Then, it is flavored with sliced carrots and dried oysters and scallops, which are pre-soaked in hot water for several hours before use, to give the dish its signature aroma and rich umami flavor.
Often served with chopped spring onions on top, it is a popular dish to be enjoyed year-round but especially during winter when people crave warm, filling meals to start their day.
