The trademark characteristics of a cuisine come not just out of the cooking and serving methods, but also thanks to the choice and nature of ingredients. Chinese cuisine uses a lot of vegetables, which in turn impart a shade of good health.

Here is a simple and delicious soup that proves this theory! This delicacy is absolutely low in calories and high in nutrients like folic acid and fibre. Use vegetable stock instead of water to enhance its taste. Served with soya sauce and vinegar, this is a great way to fire off a Chinese feast .
