Fig (with Nanbei Xing) Soup

Ingredients:

  • 8 Fig or Wu Hua Guo (halves)
  • 2 tablespoon of Nan Xing
  • 3/4 tablespoon of Bei Xing
  • 300g Lean Meat (cubed)
  • 4 bowls of water

Steps:

  • Boil water (using the inner pot of the Thermal cooker)
  • Put ingredients into the boiling water
  • Boil for 10 mins and transfer the pot to the Thermal cooker
  • The soup would be ready in 2 hours

Note: Bei Xing is bitter in nature hence we don't add in as much as Nan Xing. This soup actually helps to strengthen the lungs. I would normally boil this once every 2 weeks for my kids :)
