Coconut soup is a great way to refresh and hydrate your body in a hot and hazy weather. Not only is it suitable for everyone, it is also a perfect meal for little ones since coconut provides many essential nutrients for their growth and development.

• 5 pieces of codonopsis root

How to cook?

1. Cut the top off the young green coconuts and pour the coconut water into a pot. Scoop out the coconut meat and set aside.
2. Clean and prepare the half kampung chicken, and bring it to a boil to remove the first layer of oil.
3. Add water to the pot, based on a 1:1 ratio with the amount of coconut water you have. Add the ginger, red dates, chicken, coconut meat and codonopsis root to the pot.
4. Let the soup simmer for about 1 hour, or until the chicken is cooked through and tender.
5. Serve hot and enjoy!

This soup is not only delicious, but it also has many health benefits. The coconut water is a great source of electrolytes, while the ginger and red dates can help with digestion and boost the immune system. The chicken and codonopsis root provide protein and nutrients to support overall health and wellness.

Tips:

To make this soup, it’s important to choose a fresh and vibrant green Thai coconut. Make sure to bring the chicken to a boil and clean it thoroughly to keep the soup clear. No seasoning is required if you’re using a fresh Thai young coconut, as the soup will naturally be sweet. The coconut meat brings all the flavor to the soup, making it delicious and satisfying up .
