December 14, 2023

Lotus Seed and Coix Seed Congee

Ingredients: 1 fresh lotus leaf, cleaned and shredded, boiled to extract juice and remove residue; 50g coix seed, 30g glutinous rice, cooked with lotus leaf juice to make congee. Eat it as breakfast for more than 1 month.

Principle: Lotus leaf has a clear and fragrant aroma, which can eliminate dampness and fat. Coix seed can invigorate the spleen and eliminate dampness, promoting fat burning. The combination of the two is powerful for weight loss.

Braised Carp with Winter Bamboo Shoots and Garlic

Ingredients: 1 live carp (about 500g), gutted, gills and scales removed, fried in corn oil until golden brown; 100g winter bamboo shoots, sliced, 50g garlic, sliced, 10g ginger, diced, cooked with fried fish, stir-fry with 10g soy sauce.

Principle: Carp has a diuretic effect, and its lipid-lowering effect is better than other fish. Winter bamboo shoots are rich in fiber, which can eliminate excess fat and cholesterol through bowel movements. Ginger and garlic act as blood purifiers, reducing cholesterol in the blood and dissolving fat.
