Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 medium onion, diced (about 1 cup)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
  • 1 pound ground pork (or ground turkey/chicken)
  • 4 cups chicken broth (low sodium)
  • 2 cups coleslaw mix (shredded cabbage and carrots)
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce (low sodium)
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional, for heat)
  • 2 green onions, sliced (for garnish)
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped (optional, for garnish)
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. In a large pot, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium heat. Once the oil is shimmering, add 1 medium diced onion. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until the onion is translucent and fragrant, stirring occasionally to prevent burning.
  2. Next, add 2 minced cloves of garlic and 1 tablespoon of minced fresh ginger to the pot. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until the garlic is aromatic, but be careful not to let it brown, as burnt garlic can taste bitter.
  3. Increase the heat to medium-high and add 1 pound of ground pork (or your choice of ground turkey/chicken). Use a wooden spoon to break it apart, stirring frequently. Cook until the meat is browned and cooked through—about 5-7 minutes. Look for no pink spots in the meat.
  4. Once the meat is browned, pour in 4 cups of low-sodium chicken broth, followed by 2 cups of coleslaw mix. Stir well to combine, and bring the mixture to a gentle boil. This should take about 3-4 minutes.
  5. Once boiling, reduce the heat to a simmer and add 1/4 cup of low-sodium soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of sesame oil, 1 tablespoon of rice vinegar, 1 teaspoon of sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon of red pepper flakes (if using). Stir well and let it simmer for 5-7 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
  6. After simmering, taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed. Then, slowly drizzle in 2 beaten eggs while stirring the soup gently. This will create beautiful ribbons of egg throughout the soup. Cook for an additional 2 minutes until the eggs are fully cooked and look fluffy.
  7. Remove the pot from heat and ladle the soup into bowls. Garnish with sliced green onions and fresh cilantro (if using) before serving. Enjoy your comforting bowl of One Pot Egg Roll Soup!

Keywords: For a depth of flavor, consider browning the meat until it has a nice crust before adding the broth. Don't skip the step of adding the eggs at the end; they should be added slowly while stirring to create silky ribbons throughout the soup.
