Egg Drop Soup for the Soul

Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 10 minutes
Total Time 15 minutes

Ingredients

  • 750 ml water or chicken/veggie stock
  • 1 chicken/veggie stock cube
  • 2 free ranged eggs
  • 2 tbsp corn flour mixed with 3 tbsp cold water
  • 1 tsp of soy sauce
  • ½ tsp of sesame oil
  • salt & pepper to taste

For garnish

  • spring onions
  • fresh cracked pepper

Instructions

  • Add water and the chicken stock cube (or just use fresh chicken stock) to a pan. Let it come to a boil and then whisk the corn flour + water mixture. The soup will quickly thicken.
  • Then whisk your eggs and make a vortex in your soup. Add the whisked eggs and stir at the same time. You’ll see that thin egg ribbons will surface.
  • Season the Egg Drop Soup with sesame oil, soy sauce and salt & pepper. Serve hot and garnish with spring onions!
  • TIP: - If you want a more yellowy egg yolk add a sprinkle of Turmeric to your whisked eggs. - Add pieces of cooked chicken to your soup or crunchy veggies.
