Ingredients

Oatmeal congee

  • 1 cup steel-cut oats
  • cups chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon fish sauce to taste
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce to taste
  • 1 inch fresh ginger peeled and minced
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • Dash of white pepper
  • Green onions sliced for garnish

Air fryer mushroom

  • 8 ounces assorted mushrooms
  • 1 tablespoon garlic salt
  • 1 can olive oil

Fried egg

  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil

Topping

  • Chili oil

Instructions

Oatmeal congee

  • In a small pot, add sesame oil and ginger; then cook for 2-3 minutes
  • Add rolled oats and chicken broth. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat to a simmer. The oats will be cooked through and begin to thicken. Continue cooking until the oats are cooked or until you reach the consistency you want, about 15 minutes
  • Add fish sauce, soy sauce, and white pepper. Stir, and garnish with scallions

Air fryer mushroom

  • Sprinkle chopped mushrooms with garlic salt and toss them in all-purpose flour. Arrange the mushrooms in the air fryer basket. Spray lightly with canned olive oil. Fry for 10 minutes at 350°F or until they turn crispy

Fried egg

  • Add butter to a medium nonstick skillet over low heat. Crack an egg and add it to the skillet; then add another egg to a skillet. Cover with a tight lid and cook, uninterrupted, until the whites are completely set but the yolks are still runny, about 2½ minutes

To serve

  • Transfer oatmeal congee to a bowl, top with green onion, crispy mushroom, fried egg, and drizzle with chili oil
