Egg drop soup 🍲 (simple and budget-friendly!)

The name ‘egg drop’ comes from how the soup is made - dropping whisked raw eggs into a pot of hot soup. It really warms up my tummy during the cold weather and it reminds me of home too! 🥹 This recipe is super simple, budget-friendly, and goes well with literally everything (rice, noodle, spring rolls, etc) 🤤 Try it out and let me know what you think!

Ingredients:

- 2 medium sized eggs 🥚

- 1 tbsp cornflour

- 3 tbsp water

- chicken stock

- sesame oil

- salt & pepper

- spring onions, chopped

Steps:

1. Crack and whisk the eggs in a bowl thoroughly

2. In a separate bowl, combine the cornflour and water to make a slurry

3. Heat up the chicken stock in a pot, add in the spring onions and pour in the slurry

4. Add in sesame oil, salt and pepper. Give it a good stir and bring it to a boil

5. Turn the heat to low and slowly pour in the whisked eggs. Stir the soup in a circular motion gently until the eggs become ‘egg flowers’

6. Ladle the soup into a bowl and serve!

Notes:

- when pouring in the slurry, make sure to stir the soup continuously to prevent clumps of cooked starch in your soup

- use more/less starch if you prefer a thicker/thinner soup!
