1. Blanch the chicken in boiling water, then rinse it clean to remove impurities.
2. Place the chicken, dried scallops, red dates, cordyceps flower, goji berries and water into a double boiler.
3. Cover and double boil for about 3 hours.
4. Cook the meesua separately according to the package instructions, then rinse with clean water to remove the excess starch.
5. Place the noodles in a bowl and pour over the chicken soup.
6. Garnish with spring onions and serve.
If your kids don’t like herbs, keep it simple, just chicken, a few pieces of ginger and dried scallops are enough. You can also use any noodles your kids enjoy, it doesn’t have to be meesua..
* Double boiling keeps the amount of soup from reducing even after 3 hours of cooking.
* The soup becomes naturally sweet, so you can add salt to taste, but I personally don’t add any because I find it sweet enough.
* Remove the chicken skin if you prefer a less oily soup.
* Don’t skip blanching the chicken, it helps give you a clearer broth

One jar of sambal that saves you time all week. This is one of my favourite kitchen systems as a busy mum. I make one batch, store it in the fridge, and use it to cook different meals. It’s packed with flavour and works beautifully with fish, petai, tempeh, fried rice and so much more.
