Clear fish soup with tofu

Fish soup is so healthy for the bones especially for small children and elderly folks at home. You can add any ingredients and I like tofu because it is full of proteins. 
Ingredients


1 large piece of fish fillet
Fish bones (you can buy this from the fish monger or collect it every time you fillet your fish)
1 packet tofu



Cut the fish bones into smaller pieces
Wash the fish bones



Blanch the fish bones to remove the scum and remove from the pot




Boil the required amount of water you need for the soup
Add a few slices of ginger to reduce the fishy smell



Put the clean fish bones into the pot and let it simmer for 2 hours or more



Clean and cut the fish fillet into bite size pieces




Mix together the marinate:
1 tsp light soy sauce
Dash of sesame oil
Dash of pepper


Put the marinate onto the fish and mix thoroughly
Set aside until ready to use




Remove the fish bones when the fish stock is ready





Cut the tofu into cubes and put into the soup



Add the marinated fish slices
Simmer on low fire until the fish is cooked




Dish out and serve
Garnish with some chopped spring onions if desired
