Ingredients

Scale

Meat & Aromatics

  • 1 pound Ground Pork (Substitute with ground chicken or turkey if desired.)
  • 4 cloves Garlic (minced)
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh Ginger (grated) (Ground ginger can work in a pinch.)
  • 1 medium Yellow Onion (diced) (Shallots work for a milder flavor.)

Liquids & Seasonings

  • 1 tablespoon Soy Sauce (Use gluten-free tamari if needed.)
  • 1 tablespoon Sesame Oil
  • 6 cups Chicken Broth (low sodium) (Vegetable broth for vegetarian options.)
  • 1 tablespoon Rice Vinegar (Apple cider vinegar is a suitable substitute.)
  • Salt and Pepper (Season to taste.)
  • Red Pepper Flakes or Sriracha (optional) (For a splash of heat.)

Vegetables & Garnishes

  • 1 cup Shredded Carrots (Can be swapped for red bell pepper.)
  • 4 cups Green Cabbage (thinly sliced) (Napa cabbage is a great alternative.)
  • 1/2 cup Green Onions (chopped) (Hold back some for garnish.)

Optional

  • 2 Beaten Eggs (optional) (Omit if you prefer a lighter dish.)

Instructions

  1. Brown the Pork: In a large pot over medium-high heat, add the ground pork and cook for about 5 to 7 minutes, stirring often until it turns brown and there’s no pink left. Drain any excess fat to keep the soup light.
  2. Sauté Aromatics: Add the diced yellow onion, minced garlic, and grated ginger to the browned pork. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes until the onions become translucent and fragrant, building the soup’s foundational flavors.
  3. Add Seasonings and Broth: Stir in the soy sauce, sesame oil, and rice vinegar, mixing well with the pork and aromatics. Pour in the chicken broth and bring everything to a gentle boil.
  4. Add Vegetables and Simmer: Once boiling, add shredded carrots and thinly sliced green cabbage. Reduce the heat and let the soup simmer gently for about 15 minutes to blend the flavors and soften the vegetables.
  5. Incorporate Eggs (Optional): If using eggs, slowly drizzle the beaten eggs into the simmering soup while gently stirring in a circular motion to create silky egg ribbons throughout the broth.
  6. Season and Garnish: Taste the soup and season with salt and pepper as needed. Serve hot, topped with the remaining chopped green onions and a pinch of red pepper flakes or sriracha if you like some heat.

Notes

  • You can substitute ground pork with ground chicken or turkey for a leaner option.
  • For a vegetarian version, use vegetable broth and omit the meat and eggs.
  • Shallots can be used instead of yellow onion for a milder flavor.
  • Adjust the spice level by adding more or less red pepper flakes or sriracha.
  • Use gluten-free tamari instead of regular soy sauce if you need a gluten-free recipe.
  • Hold back some green onions for a fresh garnish to add brightness to the finished soup.
