Easy Mustard Green Soup

We call this kind of green veggie as 'choy sum', in cantonese; and also named as mustard greens in other words. This kind of green veggie is easily found here. After searching the site, I only found out that it is actually an excellent anticancer vegetable. Besides of that, they also be beneficial especially for women who are going through menopause. They have the ability to protect against breast cancer and heart disease. Their high content of nutrients (such as calcium, folic acid, and magnesium) is also supportive of bone health. Isn't that sounds wonderful. I normally used them in my braised noodle, noodle soup, stir fried or veggie soup. It tastes better after cooked. ^_^

So, here's my simple recipe.

Ingredients :

1 Lt homemade chicken broth

200gm minced chicken meat

1 egg, lightly beaten

one bunch of mustard green, washed and cut small portions

salt & pepper to taste

1 large onion, chopped

3 slices fresh ginger

Method :

- bring chicken broth to boil.

- add in onion & ginger slices and simmer over medium heat untill the onion became tender. (add in extra water if needed)

- then place in minced chicken meat (marinade with salt & pepper, a tspn of sesame oil & a tspn of corn flour), let it simmer untill the meat is cooked.

- now, add in the green veggie and bring to boil over high heat.

- off the heat immediately after that and then pour in the beaten egg and let it stand there untill it's serve. (do not stir the soup)

*I omit the salt because the minced chicken meat already good enough for the flavouring.

Hope you guys will enjoy this simple soup recipe. This kind of soup is actually quite similar to those Mexican Wedding Soup.
