Servings: 4

Ingredients

Sesame oil (2 tablespoons)
Fresh ginger (2 inches, minced)
Garlic (3 cloves, minced)
Bok choy (4 cups, chopped)
Vegetable broth (4 cups)
Soy sauce (2 tablespoons)
Salt (to taste)
Black pepper (to taste)
Green onions (2, sliced for garnish)

Instructions

In a large pot, heat the sesame oil over medium heat until shimmering.
Add the minced ginger and garlic to the pot. Sauté for about 2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.
Introduce the chopped bok choy to the pot. Cook for an additional 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the bok choy starts to wilt.
Pour in the vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a rolling boil.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let the soup simmer for about 10 minutes, or until the bok choy is tender but still vibrant in color.
Stir in the soy sauce and season generously with salt and pepper to taste, adjusting as necessary.
Serve the soup hot, garnished with sliced green onions for a burst of freshness.
