Hot and Sour Soup image

This hot and sour soup is better than the restaurants near me. It is so tasty and you can adjust the vinegar and Sriracha to your taste to make it as hot and spicy as you like. It also stores well in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and it freezes well too!

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 garlic clove, minced
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
4 scallions, white and green parts chopped
8 ounces ground pork
4 cups chicken stock

  • Taste the soup - if you want it more sour, add more rice vinegar. If you want it hotter, add more Sriracha sauce.
  • Reduce heat to medium and simmer for an additional 5 minutes.
  • In a small bowl, whisk the eggs until blended.
  • While the soup is at a steady simmer, slowly whisk in the eggs so they form strands.
