Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a large pot, heat over medium-high heat for about 2 minutes. Add the ground pork and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until browned and no longer pink.
  2. Add the diced yellow onion, minced garlic, and grated ginger to the pot. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until the onions become translucent and fragrant.
  3. Stir in the soy sauce, sesame oil, and rice vinegar. Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a gentle boil.
  4. Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium-low and add the shredded carrots and sliced green cabbage. Simmer for about 15 minutes, or until the cabbage is tender.
  5. Optional: Drizzle in beaten eggs while stirring gently. Let cook for about 1-2 minutes, forming ribbons in the soup.
  6. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed. Serve hot, garnished with reserved green onions and optional spicy condiments.
