• 2 slices Ginger
• 2 l Water
• 1 tbsp Dried goji berries (optional)
• Salt, to taste

Method

2. Bring the 2 l of water to the boil in a clean pot. Add the ribs, corn, carrots, red dates and ginger.
3. Return to the boil, then cover and simmer gently for 1½ hours until the broth is sweet and the ribs tender.

Tips

• Add a few dried scallops or a dried cuttlefish for a deeper, more festive flavour.
• In a slow cooker, cook on low for 6 hours.
