It's a month plus since I last written anything. Nothing interesting has happened although there were some work issues. Oh well, let's leave that behind shall we?
Today, I shall share with you a comforting yet appetizing soup. There are several variations of this recipe online but it's really up to you how elaborated you want your soup to be.
The Ingredients (Serves 2):
Salted (preserved) vegetables - Soak in slightly salted water for 30 minutes and then chopped into pieces.
Duck meat - 200 g (I'm estimating since I got them from my mother). You can use a whole bird or half it's up to you.
1 tomato - cut into wedges
1/2 onion - cut to strips
1/2 knob ginger - slice
Tamarind juice
Do not forget one of the most important spice, peppercorns. Some people prefer to add in a dash of pepper but in my opinion, nothing beats pounding peppercorns. They really give the soup a kick!
Steps:
1. Boil a pot of water (500-600 ml)
2. When the water starts to boil, add in duck meat. Remove the 'scum'.
3. Add in the salted vegetables, ginger and onions.
4. Let the soup boil for 10 minutes and then add tomatoes and peppercorns.
5. When the soup starts to boil, taste the soup. Add in tamarind juice accordingly depending on how sour you want the soup to be.
6. Let the soup simmer for another 30 minutes.
