3 Easy Steps to Cook Bird Nest 燕窝

Anybody don't fancy Bird Nest?? Yes. Hub don't. But yet he will complain to his friends that I didn't offer him a bowl every time I cook it. I did lei, but you rejected. So not I didn't offer ok.

It is easy to cook bird nest but sometimes I am just plain lazy to soak it. When I was expecting both kids,  I started to consume bird nest starting from the 5th month onwards. It was a weekly indulgence and I had a big bowl all by myself! So much that it can be treated as a meal .My excuse back then was, " Eh hello, I am eating for 2 ok." Muahahah.

3 Easy Steps

What you need?

  • Small Slow Cooker

  • 1 Piece Bird Nest



  • 2 Pandan Leaves




  • Rock Sugar



Steps;

1)  Soak the Bird Nest in water for 2 hours.



2) After 2 hours the Bird Nest will ballon and look like this. Drain the water and add 2 cups of fresh water, 3 Tablespoon Rock Spoon and Pandan Leaves. Set temperature to high and cook it for 2 hours.


3) After 2 hours of slow cooking, your Bird Nest is ready! 


Note: You may want to add wolf berries, red dates, dried longan for more nutrients. I prefer the original Bird Nest flavor.
Do adjust the sweetness to your taste.
