This is another attempt in making a soup for my son. I just grab any available produce and meat in the fridge, and try to come up with something healthy, and of course edible.
Saute a 2 cloves of garlic and a small sized, sliced onion in 1 tablespoon oil in a small saucepan. Sprinkle a little salt. Add chicken fillet, cut in cubes, and half an inch thick of sliced sweet and spicy Oriental sausage. Mix well. Add 2 tablespoons of a good quality oyster sauce, then mix well. Let it simmer for 3 minutes.
In another small saucepan, blanch sweet peas and 1 inch long cut carrots until the peas turn bright green and the carrots, golden orange; and shock it iced cold water to stop it's cooking process. Transfer the cooked sweet peas and carrots in a kitchen towel to dry.
Pour 3-4 cups of water into the sausage and chicken mixture. Bring it to a boil in medium-low fire. Season it with salt and pepper to taste. Just before the soup is cooked, add a tablespoonful of flour and water mixture, and pour it into the soup to thicken it. Bring it to a boil for another 5-7 minutes, or until you like it's consistency.
Transfer cooked carrots and sweet peas into the soup before putting the stove fire off. Mix.
And there you have an Oriental flavored soup.
