- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil(optional)
Instructions
- 1
Rinse the broken jasmine rice and place it in a large pot with the broth.

Bring to a boil, then reduce to a low simmer, stirring frequently to prevent sticking until the rice breaks down into a smooth porridge consistency.

Drop the pork meatballs into the simmering porridge and cook for 5-7 minutes until fully cooked through.

In a separate pot, boil water and cook the eggs for exactly 6 minutes, then immediately transfer to an ice bath to create soft-boiled eggs.

Season the porridge with the remaining soy sauce and white pepper to taste.

Ladle the porridge into bowls and peel the soft-boiled eggs, placing one in each bowl.

Garnish with julienned ginger, green onions, fried garlic, and a drizzle of sesame oil before serving.
