** I havent done this dish for years!! Lots of prep work, but it's very easy to do this dish!
can substitue and/or add ingredients, but these are the basic igridients!

**This is a very traditional Taiwanese dish. The green skin pumpkin has sweet and soft taste when it's cooked, so it goes very well with rice noodle!

** with the amount I used, probably can feed 12-15 people!

**sometimes people like to add fresh seafoods like oyster, shrimp, clams, scallop, squid, etc.
If they are fresh, the whole dish would taste really good. But here in the US, not easy to get FRESH & LIVED seafoods, a lot of frozen ones, and NO sweet and fresh taste!! Even if they are lived and fresh, they are super expensive!

**For vegitarians, can add tofu and other veggie, or just dont add meat!
