Recipe for Old Cucumber Soup - that i got from web which i had tried out and tasted gd.
Ingredients
Bring water to boil. Add bony pork and remove scum from surface of water till no more scum appears.
Add the rest of the ingredients, allow to rapid boil for 3 minutes before covering and lowering flame to simmer the soup for 2 to 3 hours.
Add salt to taste before serving.
If you wish to double boil, first boil the bony pork in a separate pork using separate portion of water. Thereafter, drain and place bony pork together with the other ingredients in a double boiler. Add 1 1/2 bowls of boiling hot water into the ingredients. Double boil for 3 hours.

For the lotus root soup, I also add groundnuts which gives a better taste. And not forgetting, I must add dried oysters (abt 6 pcs for a soup enough for 6 people).
Similary, I add dried oysters into old cucumber soup. Dried cuttlefish gives a fantastic taste too. There's also this dried ingredient, not sure what it is called, comes in the form of circular coin shape and has a small "tail" to it. Add a few of this when I run out of cuttlefish, and the taste is fab too.
