Furry Melon (Mao Gua-节瓜) Beef

Furry melon is another light green squash with furry outer skin, It is good for soup, stew or even simple egg fried. The wonderful of this recipe is that no water (or stock ) is added. It just pure melon and beef. To make the beef nice in flavor, marinate in advance the beef slices or beef stew for at least 24 hours in fridge.

Ground Beef Rice

I miss the ground pork rice (肉燥饭), by my Taiwanese friend, Debbie. She cooked with bean paste that she got from Pacific Ocean Marketplace. I understand that some will add in Five Spices power (五香粉）, but I'm gonna make it my personal version with no Five Spices, no pork but beef. My husband prefers beef than pork after watching documentary about swine farming.

Beef Melons Soup

Too many dishes cooked with wine during this winter days? Take this great soup to cool down your body. Bitter gourd (bitter melon, 苦瓜) is a known nourishing food and excellent in medical virtue. It is antidotal, antipyretic tonic, appetizing, stomachic, antibilious and laxative. However, not many will bother to just have a bite try. Definitely a great challenge to children too. It tastes as its name -  bitter! Surprisingly, it seems no problem to my princess. She takes it both fried bitter gourd with egg or this bitter gourd soup. Make a try and the more you consume it, the better you like it.
