Mussel with Ginger Soup. This is a typical mussel dish in Philippines. I grew up with this menu and I still love it. I always have sea food on my birthday, so I decided to make this soup along with the Baked Mussels with Cheese. I should make them more often because it is delicious.

INGREDIENTS:

• 3 tbs minced ginger
• 3 cloves of garlic, minced
• 1 onions
• gree onions
• 2 medium tomatoes
• chicken broth (2 cups)
• green leafy vegetables (long cabbage, pak choi, suo choi) I used Tsai-Hsin
• oil for frying
• salt and pepper

Note: You can vary the amount of these ingredients, for example, if you want more ginger taste, add more ginger.
