Egg Drop Minced Pork Ball Soup

As the weather gets colder, I will be naturally craving for warm soups and since I still have some leftover mince pork in to fridge I have decided to make Egg Drop Meat Ball Soup for dinner tonight couple with Stir Fry Beef and Broccoli.

For this soup I have used my homemade chicken broth/stock .This time around thyme is subtracted and red dates and goji berries are added.

I have also used homemade Crispy Fried Shallots Oil for flavours and aroma.

Ingredients :

Egg Drop Soup

4 cups homemade chicken broth /stock (Depending on your love towards soup)
1 tomato, sliced to 8
3 - 4 eggs, lightly beaten
Salt and White pepper to taste
Drops of Crispy Fried Shallots oil or sesame oil (optional) 


Minced Pork Ball

250g minced pork
1 1/2 tsp light soy sauce
1 tsp cornstarch
1 tsp sesame oil
1 tsp crispy fried shallots oil (Optional)
Dashes of white pepper


Methods:

1. Bring to boil the chicken broth. Add in minced pork ball and bring the chicken to boil once again.
2. Add white pepper, salt and tomato.
3. Stir the soup and turn off the heat. Swirl the beaten eggs into the soup and immediately stir around with a pair of chopsticks.
4. Cover the pot with lid for 2 minutes. Add drops of crispy fries shallots oil and crispy shallots before serving.
