Master Recipe|Steamed gourd with minced meat in Zhuhou sauce

The gourd is also known as the hairy gourd, and the fruit body is smaller, so it is also called the small winter melon. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the gourd is neither cold nor hot, and compared with the coldness of the winter melon, it is very "righteous". Gourd is a seasonal delicacy in summer, and with minced meat, it is served with Lee Kum Kee Cho Hou sauce to make a nutritious and delicious steamed dish.
