Step 1

To make the tea soup: Heat the oil in a frying pan. Sauté the garlic and ginger until fragrant. Add in the tea leaves, Thai basil, mint, coriander leaves, guava shoots and fry them until they are just wilted. Season them with salt. Put all the wilted leaves, ground peanuts and sesame seeds into a food processor, and blend then together until you get a smooth paste. Add the water if necessary. This grounded tea paste can be used in this rice recipe or stored in the freezer for future use.

Step 2

To brew the tea: Before serving, add 400 ml of boiling water to the tea paste in a teapot and leave it to brew. Add more water, if you prefer the tea to be more diluted.

Step 3

To prepare the spinach: Use only the tender leaves of the spinach and discard the tough stem. Heat 1 tsp oil in a frying pan. Sauté 1 tbsp of garlic until fragrant. Add in the spinach leaves and fry them until they are just wilted. Season them with salt.

Step 6

To prepare the cabbage: Heat 1 tsp of oil in a frying pan. Sauté 1 tbsp of garlic until fragrant. Add in the cabbage and carrots and stir fry them in a covered pan for 2 minutes or until they become soft. Season them with salt.
