American Congee

Congee is an Asian breakfast dish that has a base of overcooked rice and a bunch of essentially anything else.

One of my favorite meals right now, is my own version. I have a hard time repurposing rice when it is left over from a prior meal, but this works well.

Ingredients:
2 eggs
1/2c cooked rice
half a medium onion diced
4tsp butter, separated
1tbsp EVOO
salt and pepper to taste

1. I first dice up the onion and microwave the rice with half the butter to warm it up and hydrate it a bit.

2. Then I heat up my sauce pan on medium heat with the EVOO, once warm I add the onion. Mean time I scramble the eggs.

3. Once the onions are cooked to desired consistency (which depends on my mood) I scoop that over the rice. Then I add the remaining butter to the sauce pan, wait for it to melt, and put in the eggs.

4. Once the eggs have been cooked to the desired doneness, I put it over the rice/onion mixture.

5. Mix it all up with salt and pepper to taste and enjoy!
