Ingredients
- 4 cups chicken broth, divided
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ⅛ teaspoon ground ginger
- 1½ tablespoons cornstarch
- 2 eggs
- 1 egg yolk
- fried wonton strips
Instructions
- In a large saucepan, combine 3¼ cups chicken broth, chives, salt, and ginger and bring to a rolling boil.
- In a small bowl, stir the remaining ¾ cup broth and the cornstarch and mix until smooth. Set aside.
- In another small bowl, whisk the eggs and egg yolk together using a fork.
- Drizzle egg mixture a little at a time from the fork into the boiling broth mixture (egg should cook immediately).
- Once all the eggs have been dropped, stir in the cornstarch mixture gradually until the soup is the desired consistency.
- Top with fried wonton strips and serve warm.
Notes
- Homemade wonton strips. Cut wonton wrappers into thin strips and fry in vegetable oil over medium-high heat for 1–2 minutes, until golden brown.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 2-3 days. Reheat in the microwave or on the stovetop. Do not freeze.
