Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Brown the Pork: In a large pot, heat over medium-high heat and add the ground pork. Cook for about 5–7 minutes until browned and no longer pink. Drain excess fat.
  2. Sauté Aromatics: Add the diced yellow onion, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Sauté for 3–4 minutes until onions are translucent.
  3. Build Soup Base: Pour in the soy sauce, sesame oil, and rice vinegar. Stir to combine, then add chicken broth. Bring to a gentle boil.
  4. Add Vegetables: Once boiling, introduce the shredded carrots and green cabbage. Simmer for about 15 minutes until tender.
  5. Egg Swirl (Optional): Drizzle beaten eggs slowly into the pot while stirring gently. Allow to cook for an additional 2–3 minutes.
  6. Finalize Seasoning: Taste and adjust with salt and pepper. Serve hot, garnished with chopped green onions and optional spice.
