Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 grams pork (thinly sliced or ground)
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 3 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1 tablespoon ginger (minced)
- 1 medium onion (sliced)
- 1 medium carrot (julienned or sliced thinly)
- 150 grams mushrooms (button or shiitake, sliced)
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon fish sauce
- 4 cups chicken or pork broth
- 2 cups bok choy (chopped)
- 2 stalks spring onions (sliced, for garnish)
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon white pepper
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil (optional)
Instructions
Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the minced garlic and ginger, and stir-fry for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the pork to the pot, and stir-fry until browned and fully cooked. Break apart any clumps if using ground pork.
Stir in the sliced onion, carrot, and mushrooms, and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Pour in the soy sauce and fish sauce, and stir well to coat the pork and vegetables evenly.
Add the chicken or pork broth to the pot and bring to a gentle boil.
Lower the heat to simmer, and add the chopped bok choy. Let the soup cook for 5-7 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the bok choy to soften.
Season with salt and white pepper to taste.
Remove the soup from the heat and finish with a drizzle of sesame oil, if using, for added depth of flavor.
Serve hot in bowls and garnish with sliced spring onions.
