Step 1
Bring broth to a boil in a large pot over high heat, then add rice and stir.
Step 2
Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer uncovered 12–14 minutes, stirring occasionally, until rice breaks down and broth turns creamy.
Step 3
While congee simmers, brown ground pork in a skillet over medium-high with white parts of scallions, breaking up with a spoon, until cooked through, ~5 minutes.
Step 4
Stir ginger and 1 tbsp soy sauce into the pork; cook 30 seconds until fragrant.
Step 5
Divide congee between bowls and top each with the pork mixture, fritter pieces, and green scallion slices.
