Chile [chilli] leaf soup

Yield: 4 Servings

Measure Ingredient
4 cups Beef broth
½ cup Chile leaves; chiffonaded
\N \N Parsley; several fresh sprigs, chopped, optional
½ cup Cooked rice
4 \N Green onions; chopped

[Green onions = spring onions, scallions, sometimes called "shallots" in Louisiana.]

Bring beef broth to a boil. Add chopped chile leaf and parsley stems.

Simmer 10 minutes. Add chile leaves and parsley; simmer 3-5 minutes. Add cooked rice and chopped white parts of the onions. Simmer one minute. Serve and sprinkle the bowls with the chopped green part of the onions.

I recommend against adding other vegetables, herbs or spices or the delicate flavour of the chile leaves will be overpowered.
