These are still, officially, the lazy days of summer and sometimes eating one simple vegetable for dinner is all I want to do. I don’t need courses or components. Just something like these braised leeks and a fistful of bread...
So easy that there's hardly a recipe to speak of. Don't worry about not having anything to flavour the water, congee can be made with nothing more than salt, and if you don't have a rice cooker with a congee setting, check out this simple stovetop recipe for the rice-water proportions you should use.
