| the ingredients |
fish maw 2-3 pieces
campbelle cream of chicken soup 3 cans
corn kernel 1 packet
swanson chicken broth 1 can
chinese/japanese mushroom 6 pieces
chicken fillet 150g
dried conpoy (瑶柱) 6 pieces
water 4L
this portion will be sufficient for 10pax unless each person want to drink like 500mL each....
Steps:
1. first blench the fish maw in boiling water with ginger & spring onion for afew minutes to remove the oil & fishy taste... after afew minutes, it will start to soften.... continue to press on it once in awhile to let it excrete out the oil... repeat this step till no more oil is coming out from the fish maw
