Original loofah soup

Overview

Luffa clears away heat and relieves internal heat. When I was a child, my favorite was the loofah soup made by my mother. The soup is thick and fragrant, and the loofah is soft and smooth in the mouth. Now my son also likes this taste. It is good to drink alone or mixed with rice

Ingredients

Steps

  1. Relatively more loofahs are needed because the ingredients themselves don’t have much moisture. A family of five bought five loofahs, which is enough for one meal

  4. Put it in a plate and soak it in cold water. This will prevent the loofah from changing color and allow the loofah to absorb some water to facilitate the juice

  6. After the oil is hot, add the luffa and stir-fry. When the luffa is slightly soft and the juice is released, add the lid to the pot and increase the heat to medium. When the loofah is too dry, you can add a little water to help the juice come out
