Classic ‘hot & sour’ soup. Though you can certainly add chicken, pork or whatever you like, we’ve made this with only shiitakes & tofu…but you won’t miss the meat, trust me.
Serves 4
INGREDIENTS
- 1/4 cup finely diced smoked ham
- 1 teaspoon canola oil
- One 15 ounce can creamed corn
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 2 teaspoons cornstarch + 2 tablespoons water
- 1 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 egg, beaten
- Kosher salt & fresh ground pepper to taste
- 2 green onions, finely diced
DIRECTIONS
- Cook ham with oil in a small pan until crispy - set a side
- In medium saucepan bring corn and chicken broth to a low simmer
- In small bowl mix corn starch & water until smooth, and stir into the broth, let simmer about 5 minutes
- While stirring corn broth in a circular direction, pour in the egg from several inches above the pot in a very slow stream (while stirring) to create ribbons
- Stir in soy, sauce and salt & pepper to taste - simmer a couple minutes
- Serve topped with ham & green onions
