Grilled chicken and watercress soup
At the dawn of May, I decided to cook these two dishes - a combination of the last two dishes I cooked - for dinner.
I marinated the chicken (and left it overnight in the fridge) with light and dark soy sauce, oyster sauce, white pepper powder, garlic and parsley powder, cornflour and olive oil. Grilled it over medium heat for about half an hour (I think!). Ban and I liked it although I don't think it's as good as previously. I suspect this was due to lesser dark soy sauce and olive oil.
I boiled this soup the same way as previously except that
Unfortunately, the next day was the onset of my illness. Bah.

I boiled this soup the same way as previously except that
- at the beginning, I poured in boiling water on the cut-up chicken meat and threw it away after boiling it for a few minutes. It was a method that my sister used and gotten from my dad to get rid of the scum. It worked beautifully as I didn't need to continuously scoop out the scum later like previously; and
- I added wolfberries, which changed the taste a little bit. Sweeter.
Unfortunately, the next day was the onset of my illness. Bah.
