Kids Bouillon Cresson & Chicken liver

Hello mummies and daddies…

Today we will have typical Mauritian food!! Bouillon cresson (watercress) is what everyone craves for after a trip, parties or too many dinners. This served with plain rice and “rougaille poisson salé” is amazing! Some people like eating same with canned sardines in a salad – chillies – sliced onions and sliced tomatoes.

CHICKEN LIVER

This might not be the most attractive thing when you think about it but once cooked, it will look like minced meat and full of nutrients. Check LIVESTRONG article:

Calories and Protein

Chicken liver is a complete protein because it contains all of the essential amino acids, which are those that your body cannot produce.

Amino Acids

According to the World Health Organization’s recommendations for a 175 lb. adult, one serving of chicken liver provides over 100 percent of the minimum daily requirement for phenylalanine.

Vitamins

One serving supplies more than 100 percent of the DRI for vitamin A and four of the B vitamins — folate, pantothenic acid, riboflavin and B12.
