Pork and Watercress Soup
This is an easy soup to make and also quite a light soup so it is a
perfect starter course as it will not fill you
up so that you are weighed down before your main meal.
500g pork strips
1 med sweet potato diced
1 bunch watercress
1/2 white onion
1 medium tomato chopped
2 spring onions chopped finely
1 litre chicken stock
2 cups water
1 tsp sea salt
1 tbsp corriander roughly chopped
Put chicken stock and water in a lge saucepan and add the pork strips,
bring to the boil and simmer for 1 hour.
Soak the watercress in cold water for approx 10 mins and then squeeze
to remove excess water and bitter juices,
roughly chop and put aside. Peel and dice the sweet potato and chop
the onion and the spring onions and tomato.
Take the pork strips out and cut the rind (and excess fat if desired
off) then cut into 1/2 inch strips and return to
saucepan with salt and corriander and watercress and vegetables.
Simmer for 15 mins and serve.
