Whenever I travel to Asia and stay at the Shangri-La hotels my favorite breakfast food is congee.

 

Brown rice congee is a variation of this.

In this colder weather it is a hearty breakfast meal.

Shitake is a great addition to boost the immune system during winter.

 

Here is a recipe I found:

You can also cook this in the rice cooker using all the quantities.

 

Then you will not have to watch it on the stove.

 

Stay warm!
