🌿 Swamp Spinach Sour Soup W/ Bean Curd 🥣 An Ital Recipe

Hi dear Hive friends, I want to share my Swamp Spinach Sour Soup for the @LotusShares Plant Power Weekly Cooking Challenge. The swamp spinach is a very healthy green vegetable. In my country Cambodia we call this soup Somlor M'Cheu Kreung.

Normally, this recipe is made with beef, chicken, fish, or pork, and many people don't use coconut milk like me. I think there are a little bit of people using coconut milk, but they don’t make it vegan or use bean curd skin and snow fungus like me.

In my country I love to make this food with oyster mushrooms or straw mushrooms because we have a lot of them at our markets and because I love to eat mushrooms too. Now I have only bean curd skin so I try to make it this way, and it was delicious together.
