Recipe : Chinese Radish soup
by admin ~ December 30th, 2007. Filed under: Increase breastmilk.
This is not a secret recipe, just one of those soup which MIL makes at home, and I have definitely noticed a marked increase in the milk I pump during the day if I consume this soup for dinner the night before. Plus, its delicious
White radish (lobak) - One, cut into big chunks
Dried Oysters (Soaked till soft) - a handful
Optional - Dried Scallops (Soaked till soft) - a handful
Water (approx 2 big bowls)
Cooking oil (1 teaspoon)
Salt & Pepper (seasoned to taste)
Spring onions (optional)
1. Fry the dried oysters and scallops (opt) till fragrant.
2. Add the water and the white radish
3. Boil till the soup is slightly milky white
4. Add salt, pepper, spring onion.
You can add chicken bones or pork ribs to this soup to make it even ’sweeter’.
MIL said the dried oysters can improve milk supply. Don’t know how true, but this soup has worked for me all the time.
