Sister mentioned that the sugee cookies which we baked yesterday were not sufficient for her distributions to her friends and relatives; so we baked second batch of sugee cookies and lastly - the Kueh Bangket. This is our first trial and little did we know the process was a little tedious ... anyway, we finally finished baking them. ^o*

Green Papaya And White Fungus Soup
It has been almost a year plus since I last cook this, as I have not come across any of the green papaya since I shifted! This is a very clear and nourishing soup which also aid in detoxifying our body. Enjoy! ^o^
Ingredients
1/2 chicken (chopped into big pieces)
1 green papaya (remove outer skin, deseed and cut into big pieces)
2 white fungus (soaked, removed the hard stem and tear into big pieces)
some red dates
a handful of wolfberry
a pinch of salt (optional)
Note: White fungus should only be added into soup 30 - 40 mins before turning off the stove. This is to prevent them from making the soup sticky and starchy if they are added too early.
