(Serve 2 person, preparation time 3 hours)
Ingredients
1 whole bird's nest
10 small cubes rock sugar
Fresh fruit flesh; like papaya, melon, apple or pear.
500ml of drinking water
Preparation Method
Soak the bird's nest in a bowl of lukewarm clean water. Wait 1 hour. It will expand and soften.
Quality bird’s nest has a good ability to absorb water. Normally it will weight more than 6 times of its original weight.
Drain the water from the bowl to remove the visible dirt and the remaining tiny feathers. Do this few times until it is spotlessly clean.Regardless how clean the bird’s nest; there would still be tiny feathers.
Place all the above ingredients in a clean tureen/bowl and double-boil for 1 hour with medium fire. This recipe tastes better when serve cold. If you are preparing this for consumption over the week, please keep it refrigerated after it cools down.
Enjoy the fruity bird’s nest fragrance and get pretty!
