Her mom is a hakka and that of course makes my NIL's maternal family Hakka too. They lived in Negeri Sembilan and this is one of the place aparts from Sabah that most chinese populations are Hakka.<BR/><BR/>I remember my MIL and FIL always mentioned that my wife's ex-bf doesnt like it but was surprised that I actually liked Lei Cha... maybe due to my being a rubbish bin... whopps~ I think I offended many vegans... what I wanted to say is that I eat everything and I don't find Lei Cha vile.<BR/><BR/>The soup that my MIL made is different from yours and maybe you can take this as a reference. Instead of Mint+basil+stock, she would use ingredients that are totally vegans (She use to be a buddhist vegan but thank God we managed to extend the love of God to her. Now she's a Christian!) for the soup i.e. corriander, basil ("Jiu Chen Ta" or Nine level pagoda), tea leaves or tea, and grounded peanuts.<BR/><BR/>The soup was yummy with a lot of texture. It definitely gives plenty of fibres to get you going to the little room. I will try to get her to visit your blog (Yes, she's as savvy as you, mama teri) and maybe she will comment more with regards to food. Btw, coincidentally, her name is also Pat.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02285219031034404466noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1304437690959603870.post-18263947977425137872008-10-17T02:08:00.000+08:002008-10-17T02:08:00.000+08:00My grandmother used to make Lei Cha.
