Liver pork congee has lots of iron, vitamin A and carbohydrates.
If you are anaemic due to iron deficiency, soups or congee with pork liver is a good dietary supplement. Better taste and better absorption.
It is important to quickly blanch the pork liver prior to adding them to the congee, unless you are in the mood for brownish looking congee. Blanch for about 30 seconds just to cook the surface of the liver. Do not overdo as they become dry and chewy.
If you think 100g of pork liver is too much, do reduce the amount. Slice them as thin as you possibly could.
