Since I bought a young coconut that has been cut opened, I don't have to deal with cracking the shell of the coconut open, which is not an easy task. All I need to do is cut the top part of the coconut open and pour out the coconut water and save it and scrape the meat off. We will be using the water and meat for cooking
Use a metal spoon to scrape the meat inside the coconut. Rinse with water and then cut into about 1cm wide strips
Blanch the meat:
Cut the chicken or pork ribs into larger chunks. Bring a large pot of water to a boil and then blanch the meat for 5 minutes. Rinse off the scum with clean water
Cooking:
Put the blanched meat and the rest of the ingredients into the inner pot of the Instant Pot. Don't forget the coconut meat and the coconut water. Top up with more water to just barely cover everything
Close the lid and turn the pressure release valve to "sealing". Press "pressure cooker" and make sure it's on high pressure. Set the timer to 20 minutes and then natural release
Carefully unlock the lid. Stir in the goji berries (I was out and so I didn't use any at the time I prepared this soup).The residual heat will soften the goji berries. Have a taste and adjust by adding salt, pepper, and pinch of sugar to your taste
Serving:
For fun presentation, you can fill up the empty coconut shell with the soup and serve. Garnish with some green onion and cilantro leaves
