Vietnamese Congee
Hi Shane
I am half Vietnamese - I don't know the language so I can't remember what its called in Vietnam. My mother made 'congee' every winter. A massive pot of it. I looked at the receipe above and its made totally differently. I just made a pot (its cold here). I was looking it up to try to find out its Vietnamese name. I believe that most asian cultures have a variation of 'congee'. The Vietnamese congee is very plain BUT cooked correctly it remembers me of my mum!

Using a Tajine
Layer celery stalks on base of tajine before filling with meats etc. This acts as a trivet, lifting the meat off the base of the dish and prevents burning.
