How it's used

Originally a specialty of the boat dwellers in Guangzhou, this dish has evolved into a staple of Hong Kong congee shops. While the traditional recipe included a vast array of seafood and meat, modern versions are simplified to focus on key textures like crunchy peanuts and fried pork skin. It is considered a classic comfort food that highlights the Cantonese emphasis on texture contrast.
