Ming Mu Er 明目兒

Ingredients

1 black chicken (skinned, chopped in big pces)
40gm Nei Ren rou 内人肉 (Buy from herbal shop)
80 to 100gm Ming Mu Er 明目兒 (Buy from herbal shop)
1 tbsp kei chi/mediar seeds
10 red dates (seeded)
About 3 litres boiling water

Method

1. Clean the black chicken and blanched in hot water and clean.
2. Place all the ingredients except the kei chi in the slow cooker, Pour in the hot water.
3. Slow cook for 3 to 4 hours.
4. 1/2 an hour before serving put in the kei chi.
5. Serve hot.

Otherwise put all the ingredients into a stainless steel pot. When the soup boils turn to low fire and simmer for 3 hours.

Tips
I always add in the kei chi half an hour before it is ready to serve, as I was told by experienced mother/home maker that kei chi will be bitter if boiled too long.
