INGREDIENTS:

INSTRUCTIONS:

First, peel off the skin of winter melon and remove the core. Wash it and cut it into pieces.

Cut the pork meat into pieces and pour into the pot with one cup of water. After boiling, pour the water and wash the pork.

Boil 1.5 L of water (including water used to submerge the mushroom) on high heat with mushrooms, mushroom stems and ginger. After boiling, add the pork meat. Turn to low heat for about 20 minutes. Put the winter melon and boil for about 15 minutes and add salt. Serve.
