Detoxifying Black Soup

This is a simple soup which my mum used to cook for the family at least once a month to help ‘cleanse’ our body. This soup has a very good balance hence it is good for all seasons.

Ingredients: -
Lean Pork 500g (alternatively you can use one free range chicken)
Sheng Di Pian (Rehmannia Rhizome)* 50g
Tu Fu Ling (Smilacis Glabrae)* 35g
Water 3-4 litres
Salt

Note*: -You can buy this easily from most Asian supermarket.

Method: -
Quickly and gently rinse the herbs to wash off any dust.
Place meat, herbs and water in a pot to boil for at least 2 hours on medium-low heat. When ready, it's black in colour, look allot like black coffee.
Add salt to taste before serving.
