Chayote, Cashew, Carrot & Fresh Fish Soup

Why people make this soup

Fresh small sea fish, simmered into soup, are easy to digest and have long been favoured for recovery after illness. Chayote is one of the more well-rounded gourds — available year-round, not too cooling, and good for any season. Nourilo pairs them with cashews and carrot in this gentle soup, especially suited to people whose spleen and stomach are weak and who feel tired and depleted after an illness or operation.
