✅Complete✅ Cooking tips for boiled winter melon meatballsThe meat filling must always be beaten in one direction.
Boil the water in the soup pot until the bottom of the pot bubbles slightly, then add the meatballs. At the same time, turn the heat to medium-low so that the meatballs do not boil apart.
After the meatballs are cooked, take them out. When the winter melon and vermicelli are cooked, add the meatballs into the soup again, so that the meatballs will not be stale and the texture will be smoother and tender.
