  • 200 g red peanut
  • 20 g ginger
  • 2 L water

Instructions
 

  • Scrape off the skin of the fuzzy melon by a small knife then wash them. Cut them into big pieces.

  • Wash the ginger and flatten with the skin
  • Wash the red peanuts and immerse them in water. Put them in the fridge overnight.

Notes

1. We can buy roasted pork bones in asian butcher shops. Remember to cut away those burnt portions of roasted pork bone to avoid burnt flavours
2. The taste of roasted pork bones are different so we have to taste the soup first before adding salt.
