Mini ABC Soup

I have always love soup. The proud Cantonese in me must drink soup in most of my meals. ABC soup is the simplest and fastest soup that I actually know how to boil. Was trying to detox this week so I made mini ABC Soup.

I read it in Table for Two or More's blog that she made this soup before too. So, I made a decision to execute it. Besides, mini vegetables are awesome.

Ingredients (inspired by Table for Two or More)
1 pack of cherry tomatoes
1 big potato
1 small pack of baby carrots
1 small pack of shallots
2 teaspoons of coarse black pepper
1 teaspoon of salt

 

1. Wash and prepare the ingredients. I chopped the big potato into small chunks. Peeled the shallots.
2. Boil half a pot of water.
3. Once it boils, chuck in all the vegetables and let it boil for 20 minutes.
4. Add in salt and pepper and boil for another 15 minutes.
5. Off the gas and taadaahh.. the soup is done.

Korean Instant Noodles with Broccoli, Straw Mushroom and Poached Egg

When I was a student then, I used to eat instant noodles a lot. Like a lot. Now that I am working. I usually just pack food or eat out because it is much convenient. But the thing is.. the boyfriend was around and it was much more fun to eat out with him than being alone.

Now that I am alone again.. the boyfriend is off to work in the East Coast. It's back to instant noodles. I improvised it because I guess it's less sinful if I added more vegetables.

Ingredients
1 pack of Nong Shim Hot and Spicy instant noodles
A few clorets of broccoli
Half a pack of straw mushroom
One egg



1. Boil water in a pot. Once water boils, throw in the broccoli and straw mushroom.
2. Then, chuck in the noodles and those packets of seasonings and hydrated mushrooms and vegetables.
3. Stir to mix well.
4. Take out the noodles, vegetables and straw mushroom.
5. Lower the heat. Swirl the soup in a circular motion and put in the egg to poach.
6. Let the egg poach for 3 minutes.
7. Pour the egg and soup in a bowl.
8. Eat while hot.
