We Love God!

God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

When Holy God draws near in true revival, people come under terrible conviction of sin. The outstanding feature of spiritual awakening has been the profound consciousness of the Presence and holiness of God.

1/4 c Scallions (the term I prefer over green onions)
1/2 c Basil leaves (sweet, thai, holy, cinnamon, lemon, etc.) and/or mint leaves (Please do not used dried basil, it crocks the taste)
1 1/2 ts Lemon juice or lime juice (or juice of 1/2 lemon)

2 Minced chiles (your choice) (up to 3)

INSTRUCTIONS

IN THE STOCK POT
IN THE BOWL
Place 4 cups of water in a pot. Add garlic, rice, fish sauce, pepper,
galangal, and heat to boiling. While heating, bruise the lemon grass
stalk(s) with the back of a cleaver and tie into knot. Drop lemon grass
into stock pot(while it is heating). Dice chicken breasts into cubes and
add to stock pot. Boil & stir.
While chicken is cooking (turning white), chop scallions and place into
bowl. Add basil and/or mint leaves, lemon and/or lime juice, chiles and/or
chile paste, plus the lime leaves and/or lime rind and cilantro.
After the chicken had boiled, scoop off the bubbly, white froth. Discard
froth. Stir and pour into bowl with scallions, et. al. The broth will cook
the leaves. Stir gently and serve immediately.
As usual, serve with jasmine rice for 2 hungry people or 3-4 not quite as
hungry ones.
This is a meal I make 3-4 time a week. Just rice and the soup. Posted to
