Chicken Soup 炖鸡汤 & Romaine Lettuce

Mum is feeling tired these few days, so boiled this chicken soup for her. I used the ready packet of Dun Ji Tang Liao from Chwee Song. It says to improve health and relieve tireness. It is very simple, just use half of the whole chicken, cut into pieces & put the packet of herbs into 1.5 litres of water in a pot, boil for 2 hours. Normally it is tasty enough so I don't add any salt into it.

In addition, I stir fried this romaine lettuce with fermented beancurb (fu yue yau mak). This is my favorite.
