Ingredients to cook Vung Tau oyster congee
The ingredients to cook this Vung Tau specialty are very simple: oysters and rice. You can easily find it right in the market. But the important part is the selection of raw materials.

Therefore, oyster congee in Vung Tau is different from other places even though the ingredients are the same. In addition to oysters and rice, the porridge also has some additional ingredients such as cilantro, mushrooms, garlic, lotus seeds, … to increase the deliciousness and attractiveness of the dish.
