However, before we start cooking, I want to tell you that the watermelon skins mentioned in the following recipes are all processed in advance. Treatment process: remove the red soil and green skin from the leftover watermelon skin, leaving a white part and washing it.
(1) honey watermelon strips
Ingredients: watermelon peel, honey
Practice: cut the watermelon skin into finger-wide strips, open the cut strips on a plate, then dilute the honey with water, pour it on the watermelon strips and marinate for a while.
(2) Stir-fried watermelon skin
Ingredients: watermelon peel, salt, millet pepper and chopped green onion.
Practice: cut the watermelon skin into small slices, marinate with salt for about 20 minutes, and drain the water for later use. Heat oil in a hot pot, add chopped millet pepper and stir-fry until fragrant, then add watermelon strips and stir-fry for about 2 minutes. Sprinkle chopped green onion after cooking. Don't worry about whether the watermelon skin is ripe or not, because the watermelon skin itself can be eaten raw.
