Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1/2 lb ground pork (or ground chicken)
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
  • 2 cups shredded cabbage
  • 1/2 cup shredded carrots
  • 3 cups chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 2 green onions, sliced (for garnish)
  • 1 boiled egg, halved (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Heat Oil and Brown Meat: In a large pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the ground pork or chicken, breaking it up with a spoon, and cook until browned and no longer pink.
  2. Sauté Aromatics: Add the diced onion, minced garlic, and grated fresh ginger to the pot. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until the onion is softened and the mixture is fragrant.
  3. Add Vegetables: Stir in the shredded cabbage and shredded carrots. Cook for an additional 2 minutes, allowing the vegetables to soften slightly but remain crisp.
  4. Simmer Soup: Pour in the chicken broth, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, ground black pepper, and optional red pepper flakes. Stir well and bring the soup to a simmer over medium heat. Let it gently cook for 5-7 minutes to develop the flavors and thoroughly cook the vegetables.
  5. Garnish and Serve: Ladle the hot soup into bowls and garnish with sliced green onions. Add boiled egg halves if desired for extra protein and texture. Serve immediately while warm.

Notes

  • You can substitute ground chicken for pork to reduce fat content or accommodate taste preferences.
  • Adjust red pepper flakes to your preferred spice level or omit for a milder soup.
  • For a vegetarian version, replace ground meat with firm tofu and use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth.
  • Leftover soup can be refrigerated for up to 3 days; reheat gently on the stovetop.
  • This soup pairs well with steamed rice or egg rolls on the side for a full meal.
