Ingredients

Scale

Vegetables

  • 2 cups shredded cabbage
  • 1 cup shredded carrots
  • 3 green onions, sliced (divided use)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced

Protein

  • 1 pound ground pork or ground chicken

Liquids and Condiments

  • 6 cups chicken broth (or vegetable broth for vegan option)
  • 2 tablespoons gluten-free soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil

Optional Thickener

  • 1 tablespoon arrowroot or cornstarch mixed with cold water (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Ingredients: Finely shred the cabbage and carrots, slice the green onions, and mince the garlic and ginger to ensure fresh, vibrant flavors in every bite.
  2. Cook the Protein: Heat sesame oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the ground pork or chicken, breaking it up into small pieces, and cook until browned and cooked through with savory aromas released.
  3. Sauté the Aromatics: Add the minced garlic and ginger to the cooked meat and sauté for about one minute to infuse the oil and meat base with warm, fragrant notes.
  4. Combine Vegetables and Broth: Pour in the chicken broth, then add the shredded cabbage, carrots, and half of the sliced green onions. Stir gently and bring to a simmer, allowing the vegetables to soften yet remain slightly crisp.
  5. Season and Simmer: Stir in the gluten-free soy sauce and, if desired, the arrowroot or cornstarch slurry to thicken. Let the soup simmer for 10 minutes to meld the flavors, adjusting seasoning as needed.
  6. Serve with Fresh Toppings: Ladle the soup into bowls and sprinkle with the remaining green onions. Optionally, drizzle extra sesame oil or add chili flakes for enhanced flavor before enjoying.

Notes

  • Use fresh, crisp vegetables for the best texture and flavor rather than pre-shredded veggies.
  • Don’t overcook the cabbage; keep it slightly crisp to maintain the characteristic crunch.
  • Ensure the soy sauce used is certified gluten-free to avoid hidden gluten.
  • Brown the meat well to lock in savory depth and add richness to the broth.
  • Add thickener slowly while stirring constantly to maintain a smooth broth consistency.
