It was my daughter who introduced me Hot & Sour Soup. She uses a variety of ingredients and it takes time to prepare Hot & Sour Soup properly. This is my super quick and easy recipe that I use when I crave it. Today I thickened the soup thicker than normal, and pour it over hot Udon Noodles. You can pour it over Rice. It can be a very comforting and filling meal.

Steps

1

Prepare all ingredients before you start cooking.
2

Place all the Soup ingredients except for Potato Starch in a saucepan. Bring to the boil, then add Pork (OR Chicken).
3

When Pork is cooked, add Potato Starch mixture gradually to thicken the soup. You don’t need to add all of it.
4

When the soup is thickened, add Egg, and gently stir. When Egg is softly cooked, soup is done.
5

Heat Cooked Udon Noodles in boiling water, then drain. Place in a serving bowl, pour the soup over, add some Spring Onion, and enjoy. *Note: This soup can be enjoyed without Udon.
