Congee is a porridge made with rice that is very easy to digest. This Instant Pot congee uses dry mung beans and sweet brown rice, along with a large amount of fresh ginger and Indian spices to create a flavorful and nourishing vegan meal. The mung beans don't need to be soaked before using them as the pressure cooker cooks them perfectly at the same time as the rice. Serve congee with plenty of chopped fresh cilantro for a nourishing, anti-inflammatory meal.
