Come dinner time and my fridge did not offer much choice for cooking! Decided to make the quick and easy mint soup. Went out into the garden and plucked a bunch of mint leaves. There wasn't many leaves though due to my lack of care.
To enhance the flavour, I added 3 pieces of lemon balm leaves. I read somewhere that lemon balm is good against aging. Now, that is really a good reason for you to green your fingers and start planting. If one is down with cough, one can steep a few leaves in hot boiling water to make a drink.

The recipe for the mint soup goes like this:
Few stalks of mint leaves
3 pieces of lemon balm leaves
Chicken stock
1 uncooked salted egg – cut yolk to cubes
2 rice bowl of water
Bring water to boil.
Drop in all the leaves.
Stir in salted egg – keep stirring to have the whites in shreds.
Add chicken stock and adjust to taste.
Switch off heat and serve hot.
