Pork Rib and Lotus Root Soup

This version of Pork Rib and Lotus Root Soup is from Krystal Coffee Shop, Pulau Tikus, Penang. Whenever I visit this shop, I will always order a bowl of Pork Rib and Lotus Root Soup. Their soup has more different ingredients compare to other shops, maybe this is the reason why their soup is so clear and yet so flavourful. I cooked this soup one rainy night, just the right timing.

The claypot in the above picture is my new toy, La Gourment Truly Oriental Claypot. :)
For the ingredients: 600g blanched pork ribs, a bowl of bamboo roots, red dates, groundnuts, red bean, dried tangerine peel(陈皮), dried cuttle fish and 2.5 litres of water.  Slow cook all the ingredients for 4 hours.
