Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Finely chop the onions.
- Wash the spinach thoroughly and set aside.
- Crack the eggs into a bowl and gently beat them with a fork until well mixed.
- In a large pot, pour in the vegetable broth and bring it to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Add the finely chopped onions to the boiling broth and cook for about 5-7 minutes or until the onions become translucent and tender.
- Reduce the heat to medium.
- Stir in the fresh spinach and allow it to wilt for about 2-3 minutes. The spinach should become dark green and tender.
- Add the soy sauce to the pot and stir to combine. Adjust the seasoning to taste, adding more soy sauce if needed.
- With the broth simmering, slowly drizzle the beaten eggs into the pot in a thin, steady stream. Stir gently with a fork or a chopstick in a circular motion as you pour to create thin ribbons of cooked egg throughout the soup.
- Let the soup continue to simmer for another 1-2 minutes to ensure the eggs are fully cooked.
- Adjust the seasoning if necessary.
- Ladle the soup into bowls and serve immediately. Optionally, garnish with chopped green onions, fresh herbs, or a drizzle of sesame oil for added flavor.
Tips:
- Prepare all your ingredients before you start cooking to ensure a smooth cooking process.
- To evenly distribute the eggs in the soup, pour them slowly while stirring the broth in a circular motion.
