Report
A fast and easy sliced pork soup made with aromatics and lily flowers for a hearty yet refreshing taste. It is a great dish to make when you feel under the weather, to gain strength during postpartum, or if you simply need a comforting soup for dinner. {Gluten-Free Adaptable}To make the recipe gluten-free, use tamari to replace the soy sauce. And use dry sherry instead of Shaoxing wine.

Ingredients
Marinating
- 8 oz (225 g) pork tenderloin , thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon Shaoxing wine
- 1 teaspoon light soy sauce (or soy sauce)
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
Soup
- 1 cup (1 oz / 30 g) dried lily flower and its soaking water
- 4 cups water (or chicken broth) (*Footnote 1)
- 1 clove garlic , sliced
- 1/2 thumb ginger , sliced
- 1 1/2 tablespoons light soy sauce (or soy sauce)
- 1/8 teaspoon white pepper
- salt to taste
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil (Optional)
- sliced green onion for garnish (Optional)
Instructions
- Combine the pork and the rest of the marinating ingredients in a medium sized bowl. Mix well with your hands.
- Add the dried lily flowers to a medium bowl and add 1 cup of warm water to cover. Let soak until the lily flowers turn tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Once done, remove the lily flowers and reserve the water. Check the lily flowers and remove any tough ends if needed. Measure the soaking water, and add enough water so you have 5 cups in total. Pour the combined water into a medium pot.
- Add the garlic and ginger. Heat over medium-high heat until boiling.
- Add the soaked lily flowers, soy sauce and salt and let boil for 2 minutes.
- Add the marinated pork and turn to medium-low heat. Use a pair of chopsticks to separate the pork slices immediately. Cook for 2 minutes, or until the pork is just cooked through.
- Turn off the heat. Add the white pepper, sesame oil and green onion for garnishing. Stir to mix well. Taste the soup and add more salt to adjust the flavor if needed. Serve the soup hot.
Notes
- This recipe aims to create a simple and hearty soup with minimal ingredients, and water is used as the soup base. However, if you prefer a richer soup, you can use chicken broth instead of water.
