Light Beef Soup
Wanted to try cooking vietamese beef soup but since I don't much some of the ingredients required, I opt for a simple beef soup instead.
My hub said this tasted like kambing soup and the soup is lightly enpowered with the spices. Hahah..Oh you are free to adjust the proportion of the spices if you don't like the soup to have too much spices taste. For me, i just bought the ready packed spices at my supermarket. :)
