I went through several recipes online instructing the Watercress to be added from the very start and simmering it for several hours which, by then, the vegetables would have turned limpy and yellow. The recipe I learnt from Mum, however, was not to overcook the Watercress, adding them...
I was first introduced to this strange-looking flower by Mum who has bought a bagful of it from the market. Due to it's odd appearance, I was apprehensive to drink the tea brewed with the flowers. "It tastes just like Ribena," Mum said. The color looks similar but I cannot be too sure...
