Corn with Ham in Turkey Broth

Soup Name: Corn with Ham in Turkey Broth

Traditional Chinese Name: 玉米火腿火雞湯 (yù mǐ huǒ tuǐ huǒ jī tāng)

Introduction:

A simple, delicious and easy to make soup with readily available ingredients from your supermarket. It’s healthy with minimal fat and the kids devoured it!

Ingredients:

2-3 turkey legs

3 fresh corn

10 slices of fresh ham

4 honey dates

2-3 L of water

How do I prepare it

1. In a pot, add water and honey dates and bring to a boil


2. Rinse and de-bone turkey legs


3. Rinse corn and using a sharp knife, slice the corn off the cob by holding the corn upright (optional - but my kids love to eat the pieces of corn floating in the soup)


4. Rinse ham in warm water and slice into edible pieces


5. When your soup water boils, add all the ingredients together


6. Boil on high for 30 minutes and reduce simmer for about an hour (this is to let the turkey meat soften and release flavors)


7. Serve and enjoy!
