How To Cook Lamb Soup - Cook Delicious Carrot Lamb Soup (Chinese Cuisine)

Post on Aug 12th 2008

This is a very easy recipe on how to cook lamb soup. However, just a gentle reminder that cooking this soup will require at least three hours. Why? Because this is a chinese-style lamb soup. Just some basic backgrounds, chinese soup basically requires you to cook the soup a little bit longer as contrary to normal western soup. This is because the chinese believes that the longer you cook, the more nutritious is the soup. This idea has been passed down for thousands of years, in fact, it has been scientifically proven that chinese soup is highly nutritious. Here, I would like to teach you how to cook a pot of chinese-style carrot lamb soup.

You will need:
500g of mutton, 500g of carrot, 3g of chinese licorice (this is a chinese spice),5 small slices of ginger,some salt,pepper and soy sauce. The salt, pepper and soy sauce are used to add taste to the soup, if you do not like salty soup, you can alter the amount yourself.

How To Cook Lamb Soup:
1) Chop the mutton into small cubes.
2) Cut the skin of the carrot and then chop it into small cubes.
3) Cut the skin of the ginger and grind it using a mortar. You can choose to crunch it using the back of your knife.
4) Prepare a electronic "sapo", fill in adequate water.
5) Add everything into the pot.
6) Set the heat as strongest.
7) Remain cooking for an hour after the water is boiled
8) Then, turn down the heat to the weakest strength and cook for another 2-3 hours.
9) Finally, add some pepper and salt before serve.

This is a very easy recipe for carrot lamb soup. You will only need to prepare everything and just leave it there for few hours. When it comes to how to cook lamb soup, the Chinese thinks that by adding ginger, it will be able to reduce the "coldness" in our body. So, next time if you get cold or flu, why not consider drinking this carrot lamb soup?
