A classic Indo-Chinese favorite, Hot and Sour Soup delivers a perfect balance of spice and tang. This hearty soup features a blend of vegetables, tofu, chicken, and mushrooms simmered in a flavorful broth enriched with soy sauce, vinegar, and a hint of chili. It’s thickened just right and finished with a drizzle of sesame oil and a dash of pepper. Ideal for cold evenings or as a flavorful appetizer, this soup satisfies the craving for something warm, bold, and comforting with every spoonful.

Step 2
In a pot, add 4 cups of water and bring to a boil. Add shredded chicken, tofu cubes, mushrooms, carrots, and cabbage.
Step 3
Stir in soy sauce and vinegar, followed by finely chopped green chilies. Let it simmer on medium heat for 10 minutes.

In a separate bowl, mix cornflour with half a cup of water until smooth. Pour into the simmering soup, stirring constantly.
Step 5
Continue stirring until the soup thickens to your desired consistency.
Step 6
Crack an egg into a small bowl and beat it. Slowly pour it into the hot soup while stirring to form egg ribbons.

Step 8
Reduce the heat and drizzle sesame oil over the soup just before turning off the flame.
Step 9
Let it rest for 5 minutes to allow flavors to meld together.
