ARROZ CALDO
I love cooking (and of course, EATING) Arroz Caldo! Arroz caldo (hot rice) is a Spanish-named Filipino dish based on the Chinese congee or rice porridge. It's one of my favorite stuff to eat during cold nights (or days) or whenever I am sick...
Arroz Caldo Ingredients:
- rice
- chicken cut into serving pieces or chicken breast cut into bite-size pieces
- oil
- garlic, minced
- onion, chopped
- ginger, sliced thinly or minced
- water
- chicken bullion
- spring onions, chopped
- boiled eggs, halved or whole
Directions:
- Toast minced garlic in a large saucepan and set it aside.
- Sauté onions, ginger, and chicken in the oil.
- Add the rice and stir for a while.
- Add water and chicken bullion and stir to make sure that the ingredients do not stick to the sides of the saucepan.
- Simmer in low heat for at least 20 minutes or until the rice is cooked and soft.
- Serve in bowls with boiled eggs and topped with spring onions and toasted garlic.
You can add a dash of pepper and some patis (fish sauce) if you want!
