Opo Squash Soup with Pork
Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons cooking oil
  • 1/2 pound ground pork
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 4 cups peeled, seeded, and diced opo squash
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 (15 ounce) cans chicken broth
  • 2 cups water
  • 2 cubes chicken bouillon
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
1
Heat the oil in a large cooking vessel over an intermediate temperature; carefully cook and stir the meat until it reaches a browned state, breaking up into small pieces as it cooks, approximately 5 minutes. Introduce the garlic and cook and stir until its aroma is released, roughly 30 seconds.
2
Add the squash to the mixture and sprinkle with salt; seal the cooking vessel and cook, stirring 2-3 times, over a high heat level for 2-3 minutes.
3
Combine the chicken broth, water, and chicken bouillon with the squash mixture; bring the liquid to a boil, then decrease the heat to a low temperature and let it simmer occasionally until the squash is tender and has lost its opacity, taking around 18-20 minutes.
4
Take the cooking vessel off the heat source and cool the soup slightly; remove any excess fat that has accumulated on the surface. Introduce the parsley into the soup, return it to a boil, and then remove it from the heat source.
