A yummy-licious comfort soup that is really pleasing to the palate. You better cook more rice to go with this! ;) Ingredients:
300g firm tofu (or those that indicated on package as suitable for soups), cut to cubes |
200g salted vegetables, cut |
2 sour plums |
2 pieces of ginger |
100g lean pork, sliced thinly |
6 prawns, de-shelled & de-veined |
100g squid, cut to rings |
2 tomatoes, cut to wedges |
80g carrot, peeled and cut |
1200ml water |
Directions:
1. Boil water in pot. Add salted vegetables, carrots, sour plums and ginger to boiling water & simmer on medium-high heat for 10 minutes.
2. Add tofu & tomatoes and simmer for another 10 minutes.
3. Lastly, add the pork slices, squids and prawns and cook for 3-5 minutes. Serve hot with rice.
4. Tip: you can add 1/2tbsp Chinese cooking wine (aka Hua Tiao Jiu/Shao Xing Jiu) at step 3 if desired. I once ate at a zi char store and they added lots of Chinese cooking wine to their soup and it tastes great. But if it’s your first time trying out the soup, you may wanna skip this so that you can enjoy the original taste =D
