Homemade Bok Choy Soup with Garlic and Ginger

Ingredients

  • 1 inch fresh ginger (peeled and minced)
  • salt and black pepper
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce or tamari
  • 4 cups vegetable broth or chicken broth
  • 2 cups chopped bok choy
  • 3 garlic cloves (minced)
  • protein of choice (tofu, chicken, or shrimp, optional)
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil (toasted sesame oil preferred)
  • 1 medium onion

For Garnish

  • 2 green onions (thinly sliced)

Instructions

  1. Prepare all ingredients before cooking. Peel and mince the ginger, mince the garlic, dice the onion, chop the bok choy, and slice the green onions. If adding protein such as tofu, chicken, or shrimp, cut it into small bite-sized pieces.
  2. Warm the sesame oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook for about 3–4 minutes until soft and translucent. Stir in the minced garlic and ginger and cook for another minute to release their aroma.
  3. Pour the vegetable or chicken broth into the pot and bring it to a gentle boil. If using a protein, add it now. Once boiling, stir in the chopped bok choy. Lower the heat and allow the soup to simmer for 5–7 minutes until the bok choy becomes tender but remains bright green.
  4. Mix in the soy sauce and season with salt and black pepper according to taste. Adjust the flavors if needed.
  5. Remove the soup from the heat and ladle it into bowls. Garnish with freshly sliced green onions before serving.
