Instructions

  1. Step 1

    In a pot, bring the 4 cups beef broth to a boil over high heat. Meanwhile, thinly slice the 1 onion, 1 carrot, and 100g mushrooms.

  2. Step 2

    Add the sliced onion, carrot, and mushrooms to the boiling broth. Reduce heat to medium and simmer until vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes.

  3. Step 3

    Add the 200g rice cakes and cook until they are soft and chewy, about 5-7 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.

  4. Step 4

    In a small bowl, beat the 2 eggs. Slowly drizzle the beaten eggs into the simmering soup while stirring gently to create ribbons, about 1 minute.

  5. Step 5

    Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot, garnished with fresh greens like arugula if desired.
