Carrot, Tomato and Red Bigeye Fish Soup

Why people make this soup

Red bigeye — known in Cantonese as “big-eye chicken” — makes a wonderfully fresh, sweet broth. Nourilo pairs it with carrot and tomato for a bright, comforting pot that the whole family enjoys. It is the kind of soup traditionally offered to children with a weak spleen and a lacklustre appetite, and old hands also like it for tired eyes.
