Instructions

1 Take a mid-sized winter melon and wish it under tap so the white powders are
washed away. Now cut it in from the top so that we can bring the inner soft
parts out.
2 Now scoop out the soft inner part using a fork, spoon, or knife. Bringing them
out, keep the soft parts in a plate and keep the outer part intact. The outer
part will be used as a serving bowl later.
3 In a cooking pan, combine the winter melon’s soft parts, and soaked shiitake
mushrooms. You can use the mushroom both sliced or whole. I am using whole
mushrooms. Then add pork ribs, salt, and white pepper. Add enough water to cover
the ingredients, and bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat.
4 After 20 or 30 minutes of cooking, you will see some foam rise to the surface.
You need to use a spoon to carefully skim off the foam from the top of the soup
to keep it clear.
5 Now it is time to add seasoning. Once the foam has been removed, add 2
tablespoons of oyster sauce and 1 tablespoon of chopped green onion to the soup.
Stir gently with a wooden spoon and let it cook for another 10-15 minutes,
allowing the flavors to blend.
6 After another 10-15 minutes of cooking, when the soup is ready, carefully pour
it into the hollowed-out winter melon using a ladle. Sprinkle the remaining 1
tablespoon of chopped green onions on top for garnish. Now serve it.
