Chinese Herbal Chicken Soup

One of the easiest YET nutritious dish to cook is the Chinese Chicken Herbal Soup.

Here is what you need: 
  1. 500 g Chicken
  2. 1.5 litres Water
  3. 2cm of Bentong Ginger
  4. 10 pieces Red Dates
  5. 10 g Wolfberries
  6. 1 tsp Salt & some pepper (black or white depends on your preference.. i use black pepper) 
  7. 1 packet of Mixed Herbal Soup Ingredients. I bought the one below with Cordyceps. 
This normally cost between rm6-10 but there was a promotion that I got is at ~RM5 a Aeon. 

Owh, by the way, i used a thermomix (TM) because of the convenience of automated cooking... I don't have a maid so this helps a lot so i can so other housechores while cooking. 

First, put in the cordyceps.
Cordyceps looks a bit too much like silk worm, so I Turbo blend for 2 seconds.  This is how it looks like aftee turbo blend.
Next, put in the rest of the ingredients. Insert the simmering basket into TM bowl and pour the water into TM bowl to cook. 

50 minutes / 100 degrees / Speed 1
I let it cook while I do the laundry and other housechores.. 50 minutes later, Voila!

Simple right? It is about the same to cook it manually, you just need to make sure you stir it once awhile as you slowcook. Enjoy trying!
