Wholesome Cabbage Soup with Spicy Kimchi
The combination of fresh garlic, ginger, soy sauce and sesame oil make this healthy cabbage soup like a stir-fry comfort food (only in hearty soup form). Browning a little ground pork also makes it a filling main meal.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium yellow onion chopped
- ½ pound ground pork
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 2 inches ginger minced
- 4 cups shredded cabbage (1 large head)
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon fish sauce
- 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
- 14 ounces spicy kimchi, juice and all
- 4 cups Kettle & Fire Chicken Bone Broth
- 2 scallions thinly sliced
Instructions
-
In a large pot over medium heat, warm the olive oil. Add the onion and cook until translucent, 4 to 6 minutes. Add the ground pork and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the garlic and ginger and cook for another minute.
-
Add the cabbage. Then stir in the soy sauce, fish sauce, and sesame oil. Add the bone broth and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook, covered, until the cabbage is completely soft, 15 to 20 minutes.
-
Remove from the heat. Stir in the kimchi and kimchi juice. Serve and garnish with the scallions.
Recipe Notes
- To preserve all the live active cultures in the kimchi, it's best to add it off heat, after the rest of soup has cooked.
