To make this dish, you will need the following ingredients per serving:

- 1/2 cup of rice
- 3 cups of water
- 1 egg
- 1 scallion, thinly sliced
- Salt and pepper to taste

To start, rinse the rice in cold water until the water runs clear. In a medium-sized pot, bring the rice and water to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let the rice simmer for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
While the rice is cooking, poach the egg. Bring a small pot of water to a boil and add a splash of vinegar. Crack the egg into a small bowl and gently slide it into the boiling water. Let the egg cook for about 3-4 minutes, or until the white is set but the yolk is still runny.
Once the rice is cooked, season it with salt and pepper to taste. Ladle the congee into a bowl and top it with the poached egg and sliced scallions. Serve hot and enjoy!
