Best Chinese Vegetable Soup With Shrimp And Pork Meatballs Recipes

CHINESE VEGETABLE SOUP WITH SHRIMP AND PORK MEATBALLS

Steps:

• Prepare the meatballs: Chop the scallions, shrimp, and water chestnuts. Mince the garlic.
• In a medium bowl, mix the corn starch and soy sauce. Add egg whites, sesame oil, scallions, cilantro, ginger and garlic and blend well.
• Add shrimp, pork and water chestnuts and mix well. Add salt and pepper to taste. Chill for 30 minutes.
• Prepare the broth: Chop the scallions and bok choy. Thinly slice the carrot and snow peas. Mince the garlic.
• Combine stock, scallions, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, and carrot in a large soup pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer, uncovered, for 10 minutes.
• Form meat mixture into 1" balls and drop into simmering soup (using wet hands makes this easier). Simmer for 10 minutes, until meatballs are cooked through and no longer pink.
• Add the bok choy and snow peas and simmer for 2 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
