. The watermelon was just processed when cooking the chicken: the first watermelon was too ripe and burst. I had to use the melon skin as a base and use a knife to open the top of the watermelon. I used a serrated one, but it turned out to be a password watermelon. haha. Digging away the red soil (which is great for juice extraction), leaving a pulp about a finger wide. Be careful not to cut the bottom of the melon, otherwise it will easily leak after steaming. Make the base with something else.6
6. After processing, pour the cooked chicken, soup and meat into the watermelon. Put on the pan and steam over high heat for seven minutes. (Be sure to use a steaming rack or pad watermelon peel at the bottom of the pot to prevent the melon pot from bursting)
