Leftover Turkey Arroz Caldo/Congee

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups uncooked rice
  • 6 cups water (add more if necessary)
  • 1 bowl leftover turkey meat (pulled apart/shredded)
  • 3 thumb-size ginger (peeled and chopped finely)
  • 3 cloves garlic (peeled and chopped finely)
  • 1 medium onion (peeled, chopped)
  • 2 tbsp oil
  • salt & pepper to taste

Method
 

  1. Heat up oil in a pot. Sauté garlic, onion, and ginger for a couple of minutes. Stir in the rice to cook for a minute or two. Add water. Cover and boil until the rice thickens. Stir occasionally. Stir in the turkey meat halfway into cooking.
  2. Season with salt and pepper accordingly. Add more water if necessary. Continue to cook until the rice completely breaks down into a thickened soupy texture, stirring occasionally in the process.
