Suckling Pig Soup

I know the title sounds rude, but it IS suckling pig (abc) soup.

Hubby brought back some suckling pig heads and hands and feet from his "sau gong" dinner, and the very next day, I used them to boil my abc soup, together with some pork ribs, for taste, of course. Ooohh, and I added one piece of snail slice too.

Ingredients: Leftover suckling pig parts, snail slice(s), carrots, tomatoes and some pork ribs. Done. Just chuck everything into the pot and boil for 1.5-2 hours. Add salt. The taste? Boombasticalicious!

Saved some soup in a jar to make noodles for the boys this weekend too *wink*


Pssstt, please ignore those CNY cookies at the background. Those cookies can make you fat and gain 3 kg in a few days. Really.

If I could have some suckling pig parts, I will boil with my favourite ham choy and dried chillies. Aiyooo....sedap nyer! By the way apa itu snail slice?

    Yah, I saw the cookies in the background. I know how it is during CNY. We open and then ngap..ngap..ngap... very fattening!

  8. Very flavourful soup indeed. The dried snail slices are not really snails are they? Are they seafood as in some sort of clams that look like snails?

  15. Very nice! I would love the gelatinous goodness of this soup! :)

    Hmm...snail? You mean the ones from the Full Moon tins? I've seen Top Shell and sliced conch in cans but never snails before. It looks good!

    1. Mum calls it snail slice but I feel the name sounds weird.. It's very hard and it will turn soft once boiled in water.. Weird name I know..
