Tinolang Tahong (Mussels Soup)


I personally love this recipe! Especially back when I was pregnant.. Old people say this is good for lactating mothers. LOL

Ingredients:


1 kilo tahong, mussel
1 thumb size ginger, sliced into strips
1/2 head garlic, crushed
1 medium size onion, sliced
1 bundle kangkong tops, trimmed
2-3 pieces green sili
cooking oil





Procedure:


Wash mussels and place in a bowl, cover with water and let sit in for several hours to allow the mussels to expel dirt and discard water, wash and drain.
In a pan sauté garlic, ginger and onion. Pour 1 cup water and bring to a boil.
Add mussels and allow water to boil once more and simmer until the shells start to open,
Add in kangkong and green sili , simmer for another 2-3 minutes or until done.
Serve hot.
