👨‍🍳 Instructions

Combine chicken stock, water, rice, 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar, fish sauce, ginger, salt, and sesame oil in a large stockpot; bring to a boil.

Stir fish into congee and simmer until cooked through, about 10 minutes.

Serve congee in bowls topped with pickled vegetables, roast pork, scallions, and peanuts.

Drizzle 1/2 teaspoon vinegar and soy sauce over toppings.
