Add a photoI like my congee quite thick so the ratio of water to rice for me is only (!) 8:1, so about 2 litres of water for 200g rice. This makes about 4 bowls (though I ate this myself in the space of two days!)
It's best to leave the rice to soak overnight in the water so that you can cut down a bit on your cooking time the next day :-)
If you want it to be a bit thinner, just add an extra 500ml and see how you get on.
