Tips for choosing ingredients:
- Fresh shrimp: Choose shrimp with bright shells, firm bodies, heads that are firmly attached to the body, and that do not have a fishy smell. Tiger prawns or white leg shrimp are ideal choices because the meat is firm, sweet, and does not fall apart when cooked.
- Malabar spinach: Choose young vegetables with bright green leaves, not bruised or wilted, and small, crisp stems. Vegetables that are too big are often fibrous and make the soup less tasty.
Prepare shrimp and vegetables
Wash the fresh shrimp, peel, remove the back vein, rinse with diluted salt water to remove the fishy smell, then drain. If you want the soup to be sweeter, you can leave the shrimp heads to make the broth. Pick the young parts of the Malabar spinach, remove the old leaves, wash several times with water, drain and cut into bite-sized pieces.

Marinate shrimp
Put the cleaned shrimp in a bowl, add 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon seasoning powder and a little ground pepper. Mix well and marinate for about 10 minutes to let the shrimp absorb the spices, making the shrimp and jute soup richer and more fragrant.

How to cook Malabar spinach soup with dried shrimp
Prepare ingredients
- Dried shrimp: 50-70 g
- Malabar spinach: 1 small bunch (200 g)
- Purple onion: 1 bulb
- Cooking oil: 1 tablespoon

Tips for choosing ingredients:
- Dried shrimp: You should choose dried shrimp that has a natural orange-red color, a characteristic seafood aroma, not too hard or crispy. Good shrimp has a moderate size, is not moldy or has a strange smell.
- Malabar spinach: Choose young bunches of vegetables with small, green leaves and crispy stems. Do not choose vegetables with leaves that are too large or yellowed because they are easily fibrous and less tasty when cooked.
Prepare dried shrimp and vegetables
Rinse the dried shrimp with clean water to remove dust, then soak in warm water for about 15-20 minutes to soften, then remove and drain. The shrimp soaking water can be used to cook soup to increase the natural sweetness. Pick the young part of the Malabar spinach, remove the old stem, wash several times with water, drain and cut into bite-sized pieces.

Pound dried shrimp
Put the soaked dried shrimp into a mortar and pound lightly to make the shrimp fluffy and fragrant when cooked. If you like to eat the whole shrimp, you can leave it whole and just pound it lightly so that the shrimp absorbs the spices evenly. Pounding the dried shrimp helps the shrimp and jute soup have a natural sweetness, a distinctive aroma and a richer broth.
