The temperature in autumn is dry. If you are not careful and do not drink enough water in time, you will get angry. Therefore, we often see such a situation around us: children are running and playing in front, and everyone is chasing behind, "forcing" the children to drink more water. The good intentions are obvious, but it is not good to just drink more water to deal with the autumn dryness. The essence of fire cannot be suppressed by water. You also need to pay more attention to your daily life and diet. Today I strongly recommend a home-cooked dish suitable for autumn. So, how to make delicious clear stewed winter melon soup? Let’s take a look at the method of clear stewed winter melon soup.

1. Solve the problem of reserved raw materials

After washing the winter melon, remove the skin and then cut it into slices for later use. Remove unnecessary part of the green onion and cut it into coriander and set aside. Peel the garlic and cut it into small pieces for easy scooping.

2. Stir-fried winter melon

Bring the pot to a boil, pour in an appropriate amount of oil, put in the garlic and fry until the oil brings out the aroma, then pour in the prepared winter melon slices, and start stir-frying until the winter melon releases juice.

3. Cook winter melon soup

Pour appropriate amount of cold water into the pot, boil it over high heat, then change to low heat and simmer the winter melon. After simmering for 3 minutes, add appropriate amount of MSG, salt and dried shrimps, mix well and simmer for another 1-2 minutes before serving. Sprinkle with coriander after serving, and the simple and quick winter melon soup is ready.
