ASIAN FISH SOUP....MY WAY!

Steps:

• Bring water to a boil with the bouillon in it.
• Lower to a simmer. Stir frequently until bouillon is dissolved.
• Add rest of ingredients(cut crabmeat into chunks) except scallions, lime and optional ingredients.
• Simmer for another 20 minutes. Remove from heat, add scallion whites and let stand another 15 minutes, covered before serving.
• In soup bowls, place either rice or noodles, add soup and a splash of lime.
• Garnish with scallion greens and enjoy!
• This reheats nicely so can be made early in the day. It also can be frozen without the rice or noodles. Add rice or noodles when reheating.
• Please do not add salt or soy sauce while cooking as the bouillon cubes already contain sodium.
• **If you are lucky enough to have fresh uncooked shrimp shells available(I save and freeze them), crush them into a paste with a bit of water and use them in place of bouillon. Taste after fifteen minutes of simmering, adding 1 tbls soy sauce & then add one or two bouillon cubes as needed.
• **Fish balls are about one inch balls made from fish,seasonings. There are many different types to choose from.
• All ingredients are available in Asian markets.
