Hello everyone, come back with me on this occasion, I want to make a side dish for our lunch from water pumpkin, water pumpkin in my area is often cooked in soup rather than stir-fried, because the texture of water pumpkin takes a long time to cook compared to other types of pumpkin, so this pumpkin is very delicious. Often cooked in soup, today I cooked water pumpkin with pepper sauce, yes, as the name suggests, this pumpkin sauce looks clear, not spicy, but this water pumpkin soup is spicy and sour and tasty because there is the addition of starfruit.

Here I don't add any more pepper, because the taste of the type of cayenne pepper I use is already spicy, if you want to add more pepper you can also, why is it called pepper because the taste of this sauce is spicy from the cayenne pepper and also pepper, this pepper water pumpkin soup It is very suitable to be enjoyed as a side dish to warm rice, because its savory, spicy and sour taste increases your appetite
