Asian Vegetable Soup

Main Course Chinese Soup

Ingredients

Preparation

Combine vegetable broth, chicken broth, soy sauce, and turkey. Heat the broth to a simmer, and add the kale and bok choi. Add enough water just to cover the greens. Cook until the greens have wilted and cooked down. Add the sliced ginger and the crushed red pepper. Cook until the greens are done.

While cooking, sauté the mushrooms in the olive oil until slightly reduced and they’ve released a bit of their liquid. Once the greens are done, add the mushrooms and the sprouts, and test the broth for seasoning (salt and pepper, mostly). Add the five spice powder, and cook for a few minutes to settle the flavors.

Serve, garnished with cilantro and a bit of chili oil (if desired).
