How to Make Spicy Pork Soup

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of sesame oil in a heavy large saucepan over medium-high heat.
  2. Add 1 pound of thinly sliced pork, 2 sliced green onions, and 1 tablespoon of minced ginger. Stir-fry for 1 minute until pork is lightly browned.
  3. Add 4 cups of chicken broth, 1 cup of your favorite pasta (ditalini or small shells recommended), 1 cup of bean sprouts, and 2 tablespoons of soy sauce.
  4. Bring the soup to a rolling boil.
  5. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until the pork is cooked through and the pasta is tender, about 3-5 minutes. Stir occasionally.
  6. Season the soup to taste with cayenne pepper (start with 1/4 teaspoon and add more to your preference) and salt.
