Home-cooked: Fun Kuot Soup (粉葛 Kudzu)


I honestly don't know what Fun Kuot is called in English. Tried Google search but nothing appeared.
Updated: My colleague managed to get the actual name in Mandarin 粉葛, hence it's called Kudzu in English!
This is how it actually looked like before I peeled and sliced it:


Anyway, it is easily available in the wet market.

What you need:
  • A chunk of Fun Kuot
  • Some red dates
  • Some chicken bones
  • A pot of water
  • A dash of salt
Peel and slice the Fun Kuot. Fill up a pot of water and boil it. Once boiling, add in the sliced Fun Kuot, red dates and chicken bones. Add a dash of salt to taste. Let it boil. Once boiling, lower the fire and let it simmer for a while. Serve immediately.
