Rice soup with eggs
4 servings
20 minutes
Egg rice soup is a delicate and aromatic dish from Thai cuisine that warms the soul and brings comfort. Its roots trace back to traditional home recipes in Thailand, where simple and accessible ingredients transform into a true gastronomic delight. The soup's flavor is rich and layered: the softness of boiled rice combines with the spiciness of garlic, ginger, and chili pepper, while chicken broth adds depth to the taste. Pork mince adds richness, and eggs cracked directly into the soup turn it into a tender and silky treat. Garnished with fresh cilantro, it gains brightness and lightness. This dish is perfect for breakfast or a warming dinner, especially on cool days.
