It’s getting a little warm here, but before it started to get warm I loved making soups. So easy and filling.
I love how easy this soup is and it goes great with a yummy spring roll.
Start by peeling then grating fresh ginger and chopping green onions and mushrooms. Sauté with vegetable oil for about 5 minutes until soft.
Add 8 cups of water, soup base, and soy sauce. Allow the soup to come to a boil. Meanwhile, make a slurry of cornstarch and water. When the soup begins to boil, add the slurry to the soup.
Turn off the heat and beat eggs in a small bowl.
When the soup stops boiling, stir the soup and begin pouring the eggs into the soup.
Allow it continue cooking the eggs. After a minute or two add the spinach and allow it to wilt before serving.
Now enjoy!
