冬天乾燥天氣真係要飲多幾碗湯水, 哩碗彿手瓜煲豬蹍就最好不過啦

彿手瓜原本好有益呀

, 係網上查到話:
佛手瓜營養豐富，常吃可增強人體抵抗疾病的能力。可利尿排鈉，有擴張血管、降壓之功能。缺鋅兒童常吃含鋅量較高的佛手瓜可提高智力，對男女因營養原因引起之不育症＜尢其對男士性功能衰退＞有益。

所以呢, 哩款湯真係一碗好有益又好味既湯水呀, 而且十分易整大家真係要飲多幾碗呀先得呀

正所謂: 彿手瓜湯好有益, 增強體格最合適 

飲左2大碗, 真係飯都唔洗食呀

材料 Ingredients:
1- 彿手瓜4個, 去核, 切1開8, 去皮 (4 Chayotes, peeled, each one cut into 8 pieces)
2- 豬蹍1磅左右 (Pork 1 lbs)
3- 南杏20粒, 洗淨 (20 chinese "south" apricot kernel)
4- 北杏10粒, 洗淨 (10 chinese "north" apricot kernel
5- 蜜棗 3-4粒, 洗淨 (3-4 preserved red dates)

做法 Methods:
1- 先將豬蹍出水(煲5分鐘左右), 用凍水洗淨
2- 將所有材料放入煲內, 加水到材料2倍半多身位, 蓋好蓋, 大火煲滾, 續煮5分鐘, 轉中火, 煲1個半小時, 加鹽調味即可 (其間, 若水份失去太多, 請自行加水)

1- Boil the pork in hot water for 5 min.  Clean it under the cold water
2- Put all the ingredients into a pot.  Add water up cover up 2 times and half of ingredients in the pot.  Once it is boiled, continue boil it for 5 min.   Turn the heat to medium and continue boil it for 1 hours and half.  Add some salt to taste accordingly.

貼士:

1- 湯唔怕多水煲, 因為太多水, 可以在最後轉用大火去蒸發多餘水份, 味道不變會的
2- 彿掌瓜應選脆綠色, 長身, 真的似雙掌合埋為佳
3- 北杏(較細粒)含有小量毒性, 不宜下太多
