Posted by noris

One of my favorite dish that my wife cooks. Its her specialty inherited from her great grand mother. My favorite part of the dish is the siomai, it taste really awesome specially dipping it to a soy sauce with chillies and lemons. I think every time my wife had a family gathering in their house, this dish was never been missed. A great starter for any meal or even the best “finisher meal” for a drunk party goers. A zip of its hot soup can kicked your hangover and headaches. . . . . Did you now that this soup has a healing power, because it is cooked with lots of garlic and onions. As we know, Onions contains protein, calcium, sulfur, vitamin A, B complex, C and E. They contain sulfur compounds and have anti-inflammatory effects. Like garlic, onions have the antibiotic oil- allicin, which gives them their pungent flavor. And Garlic-has powerful antibiotic, antiviral and antifungal properties .
