Broth and Seasonings
- 4 cups gluten-free chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons gluten-free soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar or lime juice
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
Protein
- 1 pound ground pork or ground chicken
Vegetables
- 2 cups shredded cabbage
- 1 cup grated carrots
- 1 cup sliced mushrooms
- 2 green onions, chopped
- Prepare the protein and aromatics: Begin by browning the ground chicken or pork in a large pot over medium heat, adding minced garlic and grated ginger midway so they soften and release their aroma without burning.
- Add vegetables: Once the meat is cooked through, stir in shredded cabbage, grated carrots, and sliced mushrooms. Sauté them for a few minutes until they start to soften but still retain a little crunch.
- Pour in the broth and season: Pour in the gluten-free chicken broth along with gluten-free soy sauce and a splash of rice vinegar. Bring the soup to a gentle simmer to allow all flavors to meld together beautifully.
- Simmer until tender: Let the soup cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender but not mushy, and the broth is infused with all the rich flavors.
- Final touches: Remove the pot from heat and stir in chopped green onions for freshness. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed, then serve warm and enjoy your cozy bowl of Gluten-Free Egg Roll Soup.
Notes
- Use fresh ginger and garlic: Fresh aromatics elevate the flavor far beyond dried powders.
- Keep vegetables crunchy: Don’t overcook to maintain texture and vibrant color.
- Choose gluten-free soy sauce carefully: Brands can vary, so verify the label to ensure no hidden gluten.
- Make it ahead: Soup flavors deepen overnight, so prepare a day in advance if possible.
- Adjust seasoning last: Broth concentration changes when refrigerated, so taste before serving.
