Simple Chinese Corn Soup Recipe

I want to share this with my dear BFFL who requested for a 'lazy-people's-recipe'.
This is a simple ordinary Chinese soup recipe yet wholesome, delicious, warm, perfect for a cold weather.



Ingredients (Portion ~ 10 small bowls):
chicken/pork bones (or you can use chicken stock if your mom's not watching)
6-8 pieces of dried longan (from asian grocers)
6-8 pieces of dries red dates (from asian grocers)
Corn (equally good with raw papaya, chinese cucumber, radish)- cut to pieces
Salt to taste (~2 tsp)

Instruction:
  1. Bring a big pot of water (3/4 filled) to boil then add in meat (bones). Be sure that water is boiling before adding in bones/meat to avoid murky soup.
  2. Add in corn, dates and longan.
  3. Boil for at least 1 hour on medium heat. Add salt then serve.

Cooking time : 1 hour
Difficulty level : N/A...a chimp can do it, so can you!
