Chinese Style Mushroom Soup

There are times when you feel like sipping a light hot soup and there is no better way than to sip a delicious home made mushroom soup done from scratch. Whenever we visit any Chinese restaurant, we would order this light soup to everyone's delight. And if I would want to experience the taste again I would make my own version at home. So, here it goes!





Ingredients
Mushrooms, any type and as preferred (possibly cut into thin strips)
4 garlic, thinly sliced
1 inch ginger, thinly sliced
1 big onion, thinly sliced
2 eggs, beaten
2 Table spoon corn flour (Mixed with some water)
1 litre water
1 tea spoon soya sauce
black and white pepper, as preferred
salt, to taste
oil

Methods
1. In a pot, heat the oil and add in the onion, ginger and garlic and stir well until golden brown.

2. Add in the mushroom and cook for another one minute before adding in the corn flour. Mix well.

3. When the flour has thickens a bit, add in water, soy sauce, black and white pepper as desired.

4. Simmer for about ten minutes before adding some salt.

5. Lastly, pour in the beaten eggs and stir vigorously non stop so that the eggs will form tiny strips.

6. Serve in an individual bowl with some toasted bread.

*serves 4-6 people
