Description
Soup does not get any easier than this, and I’ve made it even better by turning it into an enoki mushroom soup. The broth tastes similar to the ones you get at Chinese hotpot restaurants.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 tablespoons oil
- 2 slices ginger
- 3 cloves garlic (smashed)
- 1/2 pound lean ground beef
- 1 (6-ounce) can tomato paste
- 6 cups low-sodium chicken stock
- 2 teaspoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon ground white pepper
- 1 tablespoon white vinegar
- 2 scallions (separated into whites and greens; whites cut into 2-inch pieces; greens thinly sliced)
- 3 packs enoki mushrooms
Instructions
- Step 1: In a medium pot, heat the oil over medium heat until shimmering. Add the ginger and garlic, and cook for 2 minutes.
- Step 2: Add the ground beef and increase the heat to medium-high. Cook until no longer pink, and you start to hear the beef sizzling, about 5 minutes.
- Step 3: Add the tomato paste and cook for another 2 minutes.
- Step 4: Add the chicken stock, sugar, salt, white pepper, vinegar, enoki mushrooms, and scallion whites, and simmer for at least 15 minutes until the enoki mushrooms are soft and have absorbed some of the soup’s flavor.
- Step 5: Garnish with the scallion greens and enjoy!
Notes
Tomato paste can easily be substituted with a 28-ounce can of diced tomatoes.
