Cooking Instructions
  1. Heat a large pot over medium-high heat and add the ground pork. Cook for about 5–7 minutes, breaking it apart until nicely browned.
  2. Add the diced yellow onion, minced garlic, and grated fresh ginger to the pot. Sauté for 3–4 minutes until the onions turn translucent.
  3. Stir in soy sauce, sesame oil, and rice vinegar. Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a gentle boil.
  4. Incorporate shredded carrots and sliced green cabbage. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes.

  6. Taste the soup and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed. Ladle into bowls and garnish with reserved green onions.
