1/2 c Long Grain Rice

1/2 c Glutinous Rice

5 qt Chicken Broth

1 lb Ground Pork

1 tb Dark Soy Sauce

1 ts Salt

2 ea Green Onion Stalks

12 ea Water Chestnuts

Rinse rice 2 or 3 times. Soak overnight. Mince green onions and water chestnuts. Mix with ground pork, soy sauce and salt. Bring stock and rice to a boil. Turn heat down and simmer for 2-3 hours or until the rice breaks down completely and the soup becomes thick and creamy. Turn heat up and add ground pork mixture, shaping 1 tsp at a time into a small ball and dropping it into the soup. Cook for 5 minutes or until pork balls are done. Correct seasoning. Serve in individual soup bowls. Pass the condiments around for each person to choose his or her favourite toppings. I like Nam-Yuey in mine! You can make this ahead of time and reheat. You can also use chicken slices, ground beef, beef slices, fish filets or ham slices. A roast chicken or turkey carcass is excellent for making the stock. Just cook the carcass, rice and water together. Take out the carcass when the soup is done. I add Duck Liver Sausage bits! Condiments which you can use: Sesame oil, White Pepper, Green Onions, Chinese Parsley (cilantro), tea melon (sweet cucumber), Szechwan turnips, chopped peanuts, Deep Fried Devils (Yao Ja Guai, which are small fried bread sticks), NAM-YUEY!
