Ingredients

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
4 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1 (2-inch piece) fresh ginger, peeled and thinly sliced
2 quarts reduced-sodium chicken broth
3 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons fish sauce, optional
2 portobello mushrooms, caps peeled, cleaned and thinly sliced
5-ounces cremini mushrooms, thinly sliced
10 small shiitake mushrooms, cleaned and left whole
Outer leaves of 1 small Napa cabbage or 1/2 large cabbage, leaves roughly torn
2 carrots, peeled, cut in 1/2 lengthwise then in 1/2 crosswise, and very thinly sliced
2 good handfuls snow peas
1 small bunch scallions, thinly sliced
Dark sesame oil

Directions

Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium heat and cook the garlic and ginger until browned. Combine the broth, soy sauce, and fish sauce, if using, to the saucepan and bring to a simmer. Add the remaining ingredients except the snow peas, scallions, and sesame oil. Simmer for 20 minutes, and then add the snow peas. Cook for just a few minutes longer, until the snow peas have softened but are still bright green. Add the scallions to the saucepan, remove from heat, and ladle into serving bowls. Drizzle a bit of sesame oil over the top of each serving.

Simple and good
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

This is a great recipe to prep beforehand and cook right before eating. I didn't have snow peas but used baby bok choy... instead. Worked great. Also added tofu. Next time I will try frying the scallions (or green onions) in oil and a tiny bit of soy sauce and add it to the soup at the end. That will add a nice fragrance to this Asian soup.Read more

Not as good as I thought it would be....
Rated: 2 stars out of 5

It just was not that good. And I love all the ingredients individually. It was not appealing to look at either.

Light and Healthy

I made this tonight and we loved it. It is light and tasty. Don't leave out any of the ingredients since each adds another... taste level to the soup. I will definitely make this again.Read more
