Asian Inspired Breakfast Bowl

I guess I am in a savory breakfast phase. First there was Breakfast Pizza and now an Asian Inspired Breakfast Bowl. This is not authentic at all! This is my experiment to see if I want to try a more authentic recipe for Congee. I have seen Congee on at least two different cooking shows lately. It is a long cooking rice porridge that they eat in China for breakfast. I decided to make a quick microwave version with left over rice. I really loved it. My version is more soup like. I really like the richness of the broken yolk in the broth. I love the spice of the Sriracha too. I will definitely try a authentic Congee recipe one day. In the mean time, I look forward to days when I have left over rice.
