Chinese Herbal Recipes : Ginseng Chicken Soup



Guess what? I'll be cooking today cause it's weekend again and he'll be here for dinner. I'm planning to cook chinese fried rice, cabbage and a chinese herbal soup. I love the fact that chinese herbal soup can actually help our body in a way for health and so on.

Today, I plan to cook ginseng chinese soup, and it's kinda easy to cook actually. Ginseng is good for warming, red dates are good for increase available energy and calming. :)

The ingredients that you probably need is just:

10gm of ginseng roots
5 red dates
2 sliced of ginger
A whole chicken or maybe 3 or 4 chicken drum
1 1/2 litres of water
1 teaspoon of salt to taste

First of all, clean your chicken throughly with water. For me, the best is to have the skin removed. Then, put all the ingredients in expect for the salt and bring it to boil with small fire for 2 hours.

After 2 hours, the chicken will be soft and the ingredients will absorbed into the chicken. Then , it's time to serve. But, don't forget to add in the salt and stir it. Then, can MAKAN!~!~ :)
