Chinese Cabbage Egg Miso Soup (Meatless Recipe)

I like Chinese Cabbage, be it stir fried, braised or soup and will never get bored eating it everyday!  Chinese cabbage is very refreshing especially if you make it into soup.  For this recipe, it's a meatless soup and I omitted anchovies stock and meat.  Hence, I added miso into it.  It's very refreshing and I had it for lunch; just the soup only and without any rice or noodles.  You can add fish balls, prawns, meat or any ingredients that come to your mind.  
Ingredients :
- 1 small Chinese cabbage (washed and cut)
- 3 dried mushrooms (soaked and sliced)
- 1/2 carrot (shredded)
- 1/2 tbsp Chinese Wolfberries/goji berries (washed)
- 2 eggs (beaten)
- 1 thumbsized ginger (crushed)
- 3 cloves garlic (chopped)
- enough water for the soup
- 1 tbsp oil
Seasonings : (to taste)
- 1 tbsp miso
- a dash of salt
- soy sauce
- pepper

Method :
1)  Heat oil in a wok and saute ginger and garlic until aromatic.
2)  Add Chinese cabbage, mushrooms and carrots.  Stir and mix well.
3)  Add water.  Cover and bring to a boil over high heat.
4)  Pour in beaten egg.  Gently stir it.
5)  Lower the heat to medium low. Add miso and Chinese Wolfberries.  Stir and mix well.
6)  Season with salt, soy sauce and pepper.
7)  Serve hot.
Simple, healthy and refreshing soup for your family
Do enjoy :)

  1. Chinese cabbage is also my fav veg. We like the taste and its reasonably priced. Just like you, I add lots of it into soup and also made into stir fried.

    Interesting soup with adding the eggs for extra thickening plus the natural sweetness from kei chi.
