Ingredients
  • 300g firm tofu (or those that indicated on package as suitable for soups), cut to cubes
  • 200g salted vegetables, cut
  • 2 sour plums
  • 2 pieces of ginger
  • 100g lean pork, sliced thinly
  • 6 prawns, de-shelled & de-veined
  • 100g squid, cut to rings
  • 2 tomatoes, cut to wedges
  • 80g carrot, peeled and cut
  • 1200ml water

Directions
  1. Boil water in pot. Add salted vegetables, carrots, sour plums and ginger to boiling water & simmer on medium-high heat for 10 minutes.
  2. Add tofu & tomatoes and simmer for another 10 minutes.
  3. Lastly, add the pork slices, squids and prawns and cook for 3-5 minutes. Serve hot with rice.
  4. Tip: you can add 1/2tbsp Chinese cooking wine (aka Hua Tiao Jiu/Shao Xing Jiu) at step 3 if desired. I once ate at a zi char store and they added lots of Chinese cooking wine to their soup and it tastes great. But if it’s your first time trying out the soup, you may wanna skip this so that you can enjoy the original taste =D

Mmmmmmmmm I'd like to have this for lunch now!


Hee thanks for your kind comment roma :)


Looks and sound, delicious!


Thank you bluewaterandsand, you are so kind :)


This is one of my fave soups!! Thank u so much for posting it. I normally add tomatoes to add that extra tanginess (instead of the plums which u used) and douse it with lots of white pepper. Yum!!!


Hi maiko, glad you like it! :) My version has two tomatoes, in addition to the plums (& salted veg). haa!!


I dislike showing my ignorance, but what is meant by "salted vegetables"? Is it the vegetables of my choice, salted? Or what?


No, you are not ignorant at all! :)

Salted vegetables is a type of preserved vegetables, and I think you can find it at a Chinese grocery store/asian supermarket. I added a photo of what it looks like so that you have an idea of what it looks like :)


Thank you, that's very helpful!
