[edit] Calabash noodle soup

I moved this recipe from the article, thinking it should eventually make its way to the cookbook. — Pekinensis 15:49, 30 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Calabash noodle soup (Chinese: 葫蘆麵 or 葫子麵) is a Chinese dish composed of cooked calabash, shredded meat, noodles, and soup. The following is a rough outline for creating the dish.

• Peel the calabash. Then cut the calabash into finger-sized strips.
• Cut the pork tenderloin meat into tiny strips. Marinate the meat with corn starch, soy sauce, and sugar.
• On a wok, stir-fry the meat untill it is slightly brown. Remove the meat from the wok.
• On the wok, stir-fry the calabash strips and garlic for a couple of minutes. Place the meat back into the wok and add soup stock, soy sauce, and water. Simmer for a couple of minutes untill the calabash strips look tender.
• Crack two eggs and pour the white and the yolk into the soup.
• Serve the soup with noodles.
