Pea Sprout (Pea shoot) Soup
- 100 g minced pork
- 1 bundle of pea sprouts (pea shoots)
- 2 heads of shallots
- 3 teaspoons fish sauce
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- Season minced pork with fish sauce and black pepper.
- Rinse the pea sprouts thoroughly.
- Peel and cut shallots into thin slices.
- Put 2 teaspoons of cooking oil on a frying pan and sliced shallots to fry.
- Do not fry well as the shallots will be easily burnt when adding and tossing the pork.
- When there is sizzle and the shallots become hot, add minced pork and toss well until fully cooked.
- Add a bowl of water and bring to the boil
- When the water boils, add the pea sprouts.
- Pea sprouts are quickly cooked through, so add them in and flip them over, when the water boils, done!
- Taste to check the flavour and season with salt, seasoning powder and fish sauce if desired.
- Pour all into a serving bowl if you want to eat immediately.
- If not, remove pea sprouts and meat leaving the liquid in pan, when ready to serve add the liquid later.
- This cooking method can be applied for Vietnamese katuk (sweet leaf), bok choy (Chinese cabbage)...
