Ingredients
  • A small piece of pumpkin, skin removed & cut to small cubes (about 150g without skin)
  • 200g pork belly (aka sam cham bak, 3-layered pork, 3层肉), cut to thin stripes (can substitute with bacon)
  • 2 portebello mushrooms (or a few shitake mushrooms) - cut to cubes (but not too thin)
  • 1 tbsp chopped garlic
  • Half large onion, chopped
  • 1 1/4 cup of rice, washed
  • 5-10 dried scallops
  • 10 red dates
  • 2 litres of water
  • 50g butter
  • 1 tbsp wolfberries
  • 30g salted fish, cut to small bits

Directions
  1. Fry pork slices in wok. When pork is entirely cooked on the surface, take out and set aside on a plate.
  2. Heat butter in wok. Saute garlic, onions and salted fish till fragrant. Then add pumpkin, mushrooms and stir fry for a short while.
  3. Add uncooked rice and fry till the onions are clear.
  4. Add the stuff from the wok, wolfberries, red dates and the previously cooked pork, to a pot, add water, and bring to a boil. Stir the base of the pot frequently to prevent the rice from sticking to the base.
  5. Simmer on a low heat for about 20-30 minutes (or longer if you want congee*), while leaving lid partially covered (if you cover fully, the water will spill over).
  6. Garnish & serve.
