Organic Samm

I wonder who named this soup ABC Soup. But somehow, the name stuck. My MIL calls it Carrot Soup. To me,  it’s Chinese Minestrone soup, lol. No matter what you call it, these are the main ingredients used when making a pot of delicious ABC Soup. It’s Malcolm’s favorite.

You just need tomatoes, carrots, potatoes, onions and some meat. Pork or chicken doesnt really matter. I just use whatever i find inside the fridge. You can add some ikan bilis to it if you like. But not too much as it can become quite salty. Crack some peppercorn in for added flavor. Clean all the vegetables properly and cut them up into smaller pieces. Rub the meat with salt and set aside for a few minutes.

Wash and par-boil the meat to remove the “meat smell” and scum. This will ensure a clear pot of soup everytime. Place everything into a pot and fill it with the quantity of water needed for your family’s consumption. Boil it on high. Turn the heat down and allow to simmer for a few hours. I normally simmer for around four hours.

And this is what you get. A great bowl of nutritious and comforting ABC soup that’s loved by all in the family.
