Hairy Gourd with Dried Scallop Soup
Enjoy a simple Chinese soup of hairy gourd with dried scallop, stewed in chicken or pork broth with sweet Chinese red dates.
Ingredients
- 300 g pork ribs or chicken
- 1 hairy gourd peeled, washed, seeds removed, cut into bite-size chunks
- 3 dried scallops large variety
- 6 dried red dates pitted and washed
- Chicken stock or water
- Seal salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a small saucepan, bring water to boil and parboil the pork ribs for a few minutes to remove scum and grit. Discard the water, and wash well.
- Place all ingredients in a slow cooker. Pour in chicken stock or water until just enough to immerse all the ingredients. Cook on Auto or High setting for at least 4 hours. If cooking in a deep pot, bring all the ingredients in stock or water to a boil, then lower heat and let simmer for at least 3 hours, or longer, or until meat is fall-off-the-bone tender. Season to taste. Serve hot or warm.
