ABC Soup

I bet everyone knows about this recipe. I been drinking this soup ever since I can handle hot piping soup into my mouth with no fear. It was Grandma's cooking then Mom and then myself. 3 generations and it is still alive. Hahahaha..

I customized my ABC soup. Instead of using potatoes, I replaced it with cabbage. Potatoes make me fat hence the replacement of the vegetable. This soup is easy to make and the cost of cooking is not much. I went shopping with 20 cents the other day in Carrefour and the total bill for the soup ingredients is definitely very cheap.


The washed and cut ingredients

Ingredients and Cost
Carrots (2) - RM0.45
Tomatoes (one pack) - RM2.69
Cabbage (the whole biji) - RM1.80
Chicken Drumsticks (2) - RM 2.80
Onions (one pack) - RM1.69
TOTAL : RM9.40

The ingredients bought can last you for a week at least. I am gonna diversekan my cooking. wtf. I need to stay healthy and lose weights. It sucks when I get no enough of vitamins and fibre. Mom will kill me if she knows I frequent Mcdonalds more than I frequent clubbing. Bad comparison but heck..you all know what I mean..

Ingredients for the soup
1 Carrot cut into cubes
2 Onions diced
3 Tomatoes cut into desired shape
4 leaves of Cabbage
2 Chicken Drumsticks
Pepper and Salt to taste

Follow me please
1) Wash and cut all the vegetables and chicken. Chicken fats has to be cut off if you are health conscious like me.
2) Boil a huge pot of water if you want to keep the soup for 2 days.
3) Chuck in carrots and chicken into the boiled water and then followed by the other vegetables. It takes time for carrots and chicken to get soft hence chuck it in first.



4) Boiled for about 20 minutes. Stir the soup and add in the pepper and salt to taste.
5) Simmer for another 30 minutes and voila! The soup is ready. You can add in macaroni if you need carbs


Yummy!


Healthy soup with lots of vegetables
