Meatballs With Spinach Soup

Nothing special about this soup, only 2 or 3 ingredients but sure is simple, easy and a healthy soup for all.  May be an idea for some who may think cooking is complicated.

We had two vege dishes for dinner today.  This soup and a simple stir fry bittergourd with chicken innards [free from the chicken vendor when we buy chicken from him].


Ingredients
[serves 3-4]

400 gm spinach - washed and pluck the leaves and stems
150 gm minced meat - season with 1/2 tsp salt, 1 tsp soy sauce, 1/2 tsp sesame oil, 1/4 tsp pepper, 2 tsp cornflour
1/2 tbsp tung choi - wash away salt
700 ml water
salt  and chicken stock granules to taste
garlic crisps
dash of pepper
  1. Boil water with tung choi for 5-10 minutes.  Shape minced meat into meatballs and add to soup to cook.  Add seasoning to taste and boil for another 5 minutes [can prepare this soup way ahead of dinner time].
  2. Before serving, reheat soup till boiling, then add in spinach to cook till soft but still greenish.  Dish out into soup bowl, add garlic crisps and a dash of pepper if prefered.
