Jasmine rice Congee with chicken

 One of my favorite dish is congee, it's soft, smooth and make you warm.


 It's not easy to boil the rice until it turn into smooth paste, so most of the time it made from broken rice, that can be low quality rice too ^^". 
But it's not hard to make delicious congee (or in Thailand we call it "JOKE"), at home but you will need to start  with delicious rice too. Thai Jasmine rice is what I choose (good quality one will be packed with lovely fragrance), and you can turn it into broken rice easily by putting in to food processor. Remember to processor it until fine, as it will reduce you cooking time to only 20-25 minutes and you will have super smooth congee too.
You can add other kind of meat or skip it too, it depends on how you want (seasoned minced meat is delicious too).
