The Best Egg Roll Soup I've Ever Had

This Egg Roll Soup recipe brings together all of those irresistible egg roll flavors we love…in a soup!! It’s quick and easy to make, and easy to customize with pork, chicken, or mushrooms (<– if you’d like to make it vegan).

Ingredients:


  • 1 pound ground pork (or see other alternatives below!)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 medium white onion, peeled and diced
  • 2 medium carrots, peeled and diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 small green cabbage, chopped into bite-sized pieces
  • 6-8 cups chicken or vegetable stock
  • 2 teaspoons ground ginger
  • 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
  • optional toppings: toasted sesame seeds, thinly-sliced green onions, homemade fried egg roll wrappers** (or store-bought wonton strips)


Instructions:


  1. 1 pound ground pork (or see other alternatives below!)
  2. 2 tablespoons olive oil
  3. 1 medium white onion, peeled and diced
  4. 2 medium carrots, peeled and diced
  5. 3 cloves garlic, minced
  6. 1 small green cabbage, chopped into bite-sized pieces
  7. 6-8 cups chicken or vegetable stock
  8. 2 teaspoons ground ginger
  9. 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
  10. optional toppings: toasted sesame seeds, thinly-sliced green onions, homemade fried egg roll wrappers** (or store-bought wonton strips)


NOTES:


  • *Feel free to use ground pork (or pork sausage, or shredded pork), ground chicken (or chicken sausage, or shredded chicken), smoked sausage, or mushrooms in place of ground pork if you’d like.
  • *To make homemade fried egg roll wrappers, just cut the egg roll wrappers into your desired shape/size. Then briefly fry (in your preferred high-smokepoint oil) until golden.
