    Title: Butternut Squash Congee w/Chile Oil
    Categories: Rice, Vegetables, Squash, Chilies
    Yield: 5 servings

    2 c (tight pack) rice; (pref
    - refrigerated)
    1 tb Neutral oil (such as
    - canola)
    1 ts Kosher salt
    6 c Vegetable stock
    4 cl Garlic; peeled, crushed
    1 lb (1/2 sm) butternut squash;
    - peeled, seeded; diced 1"
    1 sm Piece kombu (opt)
    2 Scallions; fine sliced
    Chile oil or chile crisp; to
    - serve

    Place the rice, oil and salt in a large pot and stir to
    combine, breaking up any clumps of rice. Add the
    vegetable stock, garlic, butternut squash and kombu (if
    using). Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Once it
    boils, reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for 30
    minutes.

    Uncover and stir. Increase heat to medium and simmer for
    another 5 to 10 minutes, until the rice has broken down.

    Turn off heat and discard any larger pieces of seaweed,
    though it is fine to leave them in. Using a wooden
    spoon, stir vigorously to break up the rice, butternut
    and garlic. Some of the butternut will stay intact,
    while some of it will break apart and impart a beautiful
    golden hue to the dish. Add salt to taste.

    To serve, top with scallions, and a few drops of chile
    oil or crisp.
