  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale

Proteins

  • 1 lb ground meat (pork, chicken, or turkey)

Vegetables

  • 2 cups green cabbage, chopped
  • 1 cup carrots, shredded
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
  • 2 green onions, sliced

Liquids & Sauces

  • 6 cups chicken or vegetable broth
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce (or low-sodium soy sauce)
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil, plus extra for finishing

Optional Ingredients

  • Chili flakes, to taste
  • Tofu or extra mushrooms (for vegetarian version)
  • Cooked noodles or rice (for a more filling meal)
  • Extra veggies such as snap peas, bell peppers, or baby corn
  • Sriracha or fresh chopped jalapeños (for spice)

Instructions

  1. Prepare your ingredients: Chop the cabbage, shred the carrots, mince the garlic and ginger, and slice the green onions so all components are ready.
  2. Brown the ground meat: Heat a drizzle of sesame oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the ground meat and cook until browned and crumbled, building a savory base.
  3. Sauté aromatics: Add the minced garlic and ginger to the browned meat. Stir for about one minute until fragrant.
  4. Add vegetables: Stir in shredded carrots and chopped cabbage, tossing to slightly soften the vegetables while maintaining some texture.
  5. Pour in broth and season: Add chicken or vegetable broth and soy sauce to taste. Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce heat to simmer.
  6. Simmer and finish: Let the soup simmer uncovered for about 15 minutes to deepen flavors and soften vegetables. Before serving, stir in sliced green onions and a splash more sesame oil.

Notes

  • Use fresh ginger for a fragrant warmth in the soup.
  • Don’t overcook the vegetables; keep cabbage and carrots slightly crisp.
  • Adjust soy sauce gradually to avoid over-salting.
  • Brown the meat well to enhance savory depth.
  • Finish with sesame oil right before serving for maximum aroma and flavor.
