Sweet Corn with Carrot and Tomato Soup (Variation of ABC Soup)


This pot is only half full. A3 drank 3 cups and had her rice with the soup. Forgot to take photo before the soup were being attacked ... 
Ingredient

2 sweet corns, chopped to 4 chunks each
2 carrots, cut diagonally into big chunks
1 large tomato, quartered
4 pieces of lean pork meat with bone
3-4 litre water
Some seedless red dates & wolf berries 
1 tablespoon soya sauce (I like to use soya sauce to make the soup a little darker. I don't like clear soup)
Salt to tast
Another pot of water for cleaning the pork

*Remove corn, add in yellow onion and potato and it will be the original ABC soup.


Method

1) Heat water in a small pot just enough to cover the pork. Once boiling, put in pork meat and continue boiling for 5min. Run the pork through cold water. Drain and set aside.
*This step is to clean up the gunk and any excess oil to make the soup cleaner and less oily.

2) Heat 3-4 litre water in a stockpot. Put in sweet corns, carrots, tomatoes, red dates and wolf berries. Bring to boil.

3) Add in pork and let boil at high heat for another 15min. 

4) After 15min, cover stockpot and lower heat to low. Continue to boil for 1.5 - 2 hours.

5) Add soya sauce and salt to taste.
