ABC Soup

This is just one of my favourite soup that my mum used to boil for our family. No idea why it’s called ABC soup but I guess it’s because it has vitamin A, B and C? So here I am sharing this yummy recipe for you.

Serves: 4

Cooking time: 2-3 hours

Ingredients:

2 tomatoes, cut into wedges
2 carrots, cut into wedges
3 potatoes, cut into wedges
500 g salted mustard green, slice into big pieces
1 big brown onion, , cut into wedges
Beancurd (optional)
1 litre chicken stock (or you can use chicken frame and boiled it with water)
1 litre water
20 g freshly ground black pepper (depends on how spicy you want it to be)
salt to taste

Method:

  1. Put all the ingredients into a pot.
  2. Make sure the water covers all the ingredients.
  3. Bring to boil on high.
  4. Once the soup is boiling, lower down the heat to medium, and simmer for 2-3 hours, covered.
  5. Adjust taste with salt.
  6. If water level is low, you can keep on adding water.

Tips:
You can usually get the salted mustard green in the oriental supermarket.
