Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 The raw materials are as shown in the picture. Because I carved the winter melon, I removed the skin. Normally making soup does not require peeling

   

2. 2 Chop the duck meat into small pieces, rinse it several times, cut the lean meat into small pieces, and remove the core of the red dates

   

3. 3 Put other raw materials except winter melon and coriander into the pot, pour in enough water, and bring to a boil over high heat

   

4. 4 After the water boils, skim off the scum, turn to low heat, cover and simmer for one and a half hours

   

5. 5 Add the winter melon and continue to simmer for half an hour

   

6. 6 Finally, add appropriate amount of salt to taste and add coriander as desired.
