Congee with par-dried tres chiles soy curls topped with @rancho_gordo La Paloma sauce and scallions 💚
I wish this photo was a little clearer, but I'm glad I took it. I've been meaning to try a thing where I partially dry out cooked soy curls to concentrate their flavor and so their sauce doesn't get lost in the surrounding porridge. That's this.
I took the homemade tres chiles soy curls straight from frozen, put them in a little Corelle dish, set it in the air fryer and turned it on at 170°F (yes, fairly low) for about 10-20 minutes (I didn't pay that close of attention), stirring them once partway through).
It worked well, the congee didn't turn a deep, dull red like last time and the curls were little pockets of chile-based flavor. I want to try this sometime with the soy curls using a mini vegan meatball recipe I made a couple of years ago that is so very good in congee!
