Cantonese Borscht Soup (羅宋湯)

Step 1

Cut the green cabbage into bite-sized pieces.

Step 2

Add the spare ribs to a wok or pot full of clean, cold water. Turn the heat to high and bring it to a boil.

Step 3

Dry your wok if needed, then set the heat to low. Add corn oil to the wok. Add the ginger and garlic. Stir-fry these aromatics on low heat until they're fragrant, which should take 15-20 seconds.

Step 4

To the soup pot full of stir-fried ingredients, add chicken broth. Then turn the heat on to high. Add water, then give it a good stir.
