One of my favourite soup, the Amaranth greens or Chinese Spinach or Bayam (Malay) soup. I boiled the chicken meat or bones as soup base and added on tomatoes, a slice of ginger and amaranth greens, and some salt and seasoning to taste.
This is the Hippocrates' soup that is recommended in the detox and rejuvenation programme that I underwent last week. It is supposed to be boiled (simmer) for few hours until all ingredients are very soft.
The ingredients are (for up to 8 servings):
Tomato (1 cup)
Onion ( 1 large one)
Garlic (3 cloves)
Celery (1 cup)
Carrot ((1 cup)
Potatoes (5)
Pumpkin (1 cup)
Leeks (1 cup)
Distilled water
Preparing directions:
Cut all the above into cube and put them into slow cooker with distilled water just enough to cover the all the ingredients. Simmer for few hours until all the ingredients are very soft.
