Chicken Soup

Ibu cooked curry fish today. Vin is not a fan of curry and Sel can no longer eat curry, or at least for the next 3 months because she had failed the gestational diabetes screening earlier this week. Guess Sel will now have to learn and cook healthier meals and not rely on Ibu's cooking daily. So the menu for today's lunch and dinner:


Chicken Soup

This is Mama's recipe.

Ingredients
4 pieces of chicken thigh
¼ of an onion (chopped)
1 small piece of garlic (chopped)
1 slice of ginger
½ a carrot
2 cups of cauliflower
1 potato
Salt to taste
Pepper to taste
Adequate water
Some parsley

Method
Saute chopped ingredients and ginger. Then add 3 cups of water and let it boil. Add chicken and after 5 minutes add the potatoes. 5 minutes later add the carrots, vegetable and parsley. Add salt and pepper to taste. Turn off the heat when your vegetables are cooked the way you like it. Done! It’s so simple.


It somehow doesn't taste like Mama's but it could be because Sel had put lesser salt. The nurses had advised that her food should be as bland as possible.
