How to make soup stock ?

There are 2 ways to make the soup stock.

Convenient way
Simply get the bouillon cube or liquid from the department store.
It depends on what type of soup stock you want to make ?
There are chicken soup stock, beef soup stock, vegetable soup stock or fish soup stock cube available in the market.

















1. Boil the water, put in one cube and cook for 3-5 mins. Done.

*For my preference, I like Knorr more than others because it taste more natural and I don't find any coloring added in the cube.


Healthy way
Chicken/ beef soup stock -
1. Buy the chicken/beef bone from wet market. Wash the bone.
2. Boil the water and put the bone in a pot with high heat fire for 30 mins. Simmer for another 1-1.5 hours (depend on the portion, you need to make)
3. Add salt. Done.

Fish soup stock-
1. Buy the Ikan Bilis (Small tiny fish) from department stall or wet market.
2. Lightly wash the Ikan Bilis.
3. Boil the water and put the fish inside the pot with high heat fire for 30 mins. Simmer for another 1 -1.5 hours (depend on the portion, you need to make)
3. Add salt. Done.


Tips: When finished cooking, strain the broth and refrigerate for few hours. Fat in the broth will congeal at the top and can be easily strained off.
