Carambola Soup

My relatives brought a large bag of raw star fruit. I heard that star fruit cannot be cooked, but I don’t want to waste it, so I want to ask you if you have any ideas for cooking it?

For example, can I make soup? Or is there any other way to cook it? Please give me some suggestions, thank you!!

Thank you all!

I made this delicious soup last week, and everyone said it was delicious! But I forgot to take a photo, hehe~~

Lean Meat and Carambola

How to make carambola soup

1. 500g pork shank (because pork shank tastes better after being cooked in soup, pork is expensive here, don’t waste it, so I’d rather buy more expensive ones, I can still enjoy more)

2. 3 carambolas

3. 8 horse mackerel (peeled)

4. 1 honey (only one left, no solution)

5. A little tangerine peel and ginger

Put all the dried herbs in a pot and boil for an hour. Add salt and drink it. It tastes sour and sweet, delicious and can clear away heat.
