Hello friends of Foodie Bee Hive, So recently I have cooked many different kinds of soup. Today, let’s me show you more about my cooking recipe, it is a hot soup with papaya. Actually, in my local area, if we look for a few vegetables like the easy growing vegetables, we can ask our neighbor who grow the vegetables behind their house. So I got the papaya from grandma who living near my house. We usually share food together. Now, let’s start our cooking.

Ingredients

• Papaya
• Krill
• Fish
• Basil leaves
• Tamarind

Directions 🧭

First of all we need to wash the whole papaya, removed all the green skin from it and wash it again with clean water. After that we take a small knife in the kitchen and cut it into a very small piece or sometimes if you want it to be more bigger, you can trim it bigger than mine.

This is basil leaves. When I got it, it is very dirty so I need to wash it over again and again at least 4-5 times. And then I just removed the old leaves and the dark leaves away. Set it aside.

Boil a pot of water, I add 4 glass of water. Now, waiting until it boiled.

I opened my kitchen cabinet, I take one tablespoon of Tamarind paste. The Tamarind paste is so sour so if you want it less sour than this you can take less than mine.

Here is how I clean the fresh Krill, we need to cut the head of it and wash it with cold water for at least 4-5 times and then I let it dry and set it aside.

While waiting for the water to boil, I made the Tamarind Juice. By making it, I add a half glass of hot water into the bowl and mix it with Tamarind paste.

The water is boiling now, let add the seasoning 🧂 into the pot. I would like to add about a half tablespoon of salt.

Now, a half tablespoon spoon of sugar as salt.

The Krill and the fish is dry now let put it into the boiling pot.

Stirring it together and let it boil again over medium heat. This time if you see some bubbles exist in the pot, always remove it.

Here, I would like to transfer the Tamarind Juice into the boiling pot and stir it over the pot.

After waiting for 6 minutes, it is time to cook the papaya.

Bring all the papaya that we are already prepared into the pot and let it simmer and boil about 3 minutes more.

I taste the soup and knowing that i haven’t add the soup powder yet so I add it into the soup pot about 1/3 of tablespoon.

Pour it all over like this.

Let bring the lid on and wait about 1 minutes more.

Our soup is done. When we place it in the plate, I would like to add the basil leave on the top. The basil leaves bring a good smell to the soup which make it more fragrant and delicious.
