Watercrest soup.

Since Anne started to love eating rice, I have to boil a soup everyday for her to eat with her rice. Watercrest soup is one of Anne's favourite soup. If I mix her rice with this soup and cut some watercrest into her rice, she will finish one big bowl of rice in 15 minutes.

It's not easy to get watercrest here. We only can get it from Hua Nam Hang in Rotterdam. Luckily this shop is very near to our church in Rotterdam, so normally we will go to this shop after our Sunday service. We have to wait at the main door for the shop open at 12:oopm every sunday (Sunday service ended 11:30am)!

Ingredients:

• 2 bulks of watercrest
• pork ribs
• red dates
• dried longans
• chinese wolfberry

Steps:

1. Wash and separate the watercrest’s sprouts and stems.
2. Boil a big pot of water and another small pot of water.
3. When the small pot of water is boiling, add in pork ribs. Once the water boil again, take out the pork ribs and put into the big pot of boiling water. This is to avoid your soup look blur.
4. Then add in the watercrest stems and red dates, dried longans, chinese wolfberry and then boil for at least 1 hours.
5. Dig out the stems from the pot and put in the watercrest sprouts and let it boil for a while.
6. When you just about to turn off the fire, add salt.

Simple and yummy soup!
