Mustard Greens Soup

My real love for mustard greens soup began when I was a kid spending my allowance at a Chinese restaurant. This soup is a snap to make at the last minute, providing you have prepared the soup stock a few days before.

Cuisine: Chinese
Type: Chicken, Poultry
Courses: Soup
Serves: 8 people

Recipe Ingredients

2   Basic chicken stock - see * note
  (or use canned chicken stock)
1/2 cup 118mlDry white wine
3 tablespoons 45mlOlive oil
2   Garlic cloves - peeled and crushed
1 cup 62g / 2.2ozThinly sliced yellow onion
1 1/2   Mustard greens - washed and chopped
2   Eggs - beaten
  Salt - to taste
  Freshly-ground black pepper - to taste

Recipe Instructions

* Note: See the "Basic Chicken Stock" recipe which is included in this collection.

In a 4-quart pot bring the stock and wine to a simmer. Heat a large frying pan and add 2 tablespoons of the oil, the garlic and onion. Saute until the onion becomes just tender and add to the pot of simmering stock.

Heat the frying pan again and add the remaining tablespoon of oil. Saute the mustard greens a few minutes until they collapse. Add to the pot. Cover and simmer 5 minutes or until the mustard greens and onion are tender.

Pour the beaten egg slowly over the top of the soup and gently stir in. Salt and pepper to taste. This recipe serves 8.
