1. Wash and blanch the trotter ham. Wash and soak the soya beans for
an hour. Cook the soya beans, trotter ham with 15 bowls of water to make soup, about 3
hours.
2. Cut the bitter melon into pieces, put it in the soup together
with the preserved leaf mustard cabbage, mushrooms and red pepper and dried shrimp, let it
cook for a further 30 minutes.
Practical Tips:
1. A whole chilli peper can rid the "coldness" within the
body; chopped chilli can make the soup taste hotter.
2. To enrich the flavour of the soup, put some dried shrimps in it.
