Egg Drop Water Chestnut Sweet Soup 蛋花馬蹄露

Water chestnut is not everyone's cup of tea.  Some like it but some don't.  I remembered when we are exposed to too much dust, my grandma will tell us to eat more water chestnut to cleanse our system.
While I was working, I also recall that fruit stall used to sell this in stick form but I think these days, you can hardly find it.
Anyway, today I prepared Egg drop water chestnut sweet soup 蛋花馬蹄露 for tonight's dessert.

What you need:
140g water chestnut, skinned and diced100- 120g rock sugar (adjust to your liking)25g water chestnut flour2 eggs1000ml + 100ml water
Method:
Dissolve rock sugar and 1000ml water until med heat.  Add in water chestnut when bubbles starts to appear at the sides and bring to a boil.
Dissolve water chestnut flour with 100ml water.
Pour flour mixture into the boiling water chestnut mixture from heat and pour immediately into the flour mixture.  Stir constantly until thickens.
Whisk eggs and pour into the sweet soup stirring continuously. 
Bring it back to a boil.
Either serve hot, warm or cold.
Enjoy!
