What I cooked yesterday - Dinner for 3

I made soup yesterday.

I have no name for it but this are the ingredients and steps:

pork minced meat 50 grams
garlic x 1, chopped finely
small onions x 3, chopped finely
melon x 1 (mao gua), cubed
small potato x 1, cubed
soya sauce
sasame oil
pepper
sugar
salt
black beans 50 grams
peanuts 50 grams
egg x 1
Gou qi, a little bit

1.heat up 1 litre of water in a pot.
2. slice up the melon into cubes and toss in when water is hot
3. next, golden fry the onions and throw into the soup. It gives off a nice aroma. Chinese style
4. let the content boil for a while. Meanwhile, you can chop up your garlic and throw it in
5. prepared your minced pork. add soya sauce, peppar and sasame oil to your liking with the minced pork. Add an extra egg to it if you have nothing to do and maybe a few more calories to make you feel better in this cold Shanghai weather.
6. toss it in into the soup
7. add peanuts and black beans. make sure wash them first!
8. add cubed potatos in
9. season to taste with gou qi, salt, sugar
10. let soup boil for 2 hours

Its good and sweet, though it doesn't really look appetizing :)

food that goes along well with it:
