Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground pork
- 2 tablespoons coconut aminos
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, minced
- 2 stalks green onions, chopped
- 12 large pieces napa cabbage leaves
- 6 cups chicken broth
- 1 cup carrots, sliced
- 1 cup shiitake mushrooms, sliced
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fish sauce
- 0.25 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
Instructions
In a medium bowl, combine ground pork, coconut aminos, sesame oil, ginger, and half of the green onions. Mix well until thoroughly combined.
Lay each napa cabbage leaf flat. Place about 1 tablespoon of the pork mixture in the center of each leaf. Roll the leaf around the filling like a parcel, tucking the edges to secure the filling inside.
In a large pot, bring the chicken broth to a simmer over medium heat. Add the carrots, shiitake mushrooms, sea salt, and black pepper. Simmer for 10 minutes or until carrots are tender.
Gently add the napa cabbage bundles to the simmering soup. Cook for another 10-12 minutes until the pork is cooked through.
Add fish sauce to the soup and stir well.
Remove from heat and serve the soup hot, garnished with remaining green onions and fresh cilantro.
