Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound pork shoulder
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium onion
- 3 garlic cloves
- 6 cups chicken broth
- 1 tablespoon ginger
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 packs shirataki noodles
- 2 cups spinach leaves
- 2 stalks scallions
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
Instructions
Cut the pork shoulder into bite-sized cubes and season with salt and black pepper.
Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the pork cubes and sear on all sides until brown, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the pork and set aside.
Dice the onion and mince the garlic cloves. In the same pot, add the onion and garlic, cooking until the onion is translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
Grate the ginger and add it to the pot with the chicken broth, soy sauce, and seared pork. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 25 minutes.
While the soup simmers, prepare the shirataki noodles according to the package instructions and set aside.
Slice the scallions thinly and rinse the spinach leaves thoroughly.
After the soup has simmered for 25 minutes, add the shirataki noodles and spinach to the pot. Cook for an additional 5-10 minutes until the spinach is wilted.
Stir in the sesame oil and sliced scallions before serving.
Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary, then serve hot.
