This ginger and spring onion egg drop soup is a delicate, fragrant dish that offers pure comfort in a bowl. By poaching a succulent chicken breast directly in a broth infused with fresh ginger and smashed aromatics, you create a deeply savoury base that remains light and refreshing. The classic technique of swirling beaten eggs into the hot liquid creates beautiful, silky ribbons that give the soup its signature texture and appeal.
As a diabetes-friendly recipe, this protein-rich soup is naturally low in carbohydrates while being incredibly satisfying. It makes for a nourishing lunch or a light starter that settles the stomach and warms the senses. Serve it simply with a touch of toasted sesame oil and a generous scatter of fresh spring onions for a healthy, homemade meal that is ready in under thirty minutes.

Ingredients for Ginger Spring onion Egg-Drop Soup
6 spring onions, divided
475ml water
350ml reduced-sodium chicken broth
1 (2-inch) piece peeled ginger, sliced
1 skinless boneless chicken breast half (6 to 230g )
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1/4 teaspoons white pepper (optional)
Asian sesame oil
How to make Ginger Spring onion Egg-Drop Soup
Smash 3 spring onions and cut into 2-inch pieces, then put in a 2-quart saucepan with water, broth, ginger, and 3/4 teaspoons salt. Bring to a simmer, then poach chicken at a bare simmer, uncovered, until just cooked through, 12 to 15 minutes. Transfer chicken to a cutting board and let broth steep, covered, 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, chop remaining 3 spring onions and shred chicken.
Discard spring onions and ginger from broth and bring to a brisk simmer. Add beaten eggs in a slow stream, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and stir in spring onions, chicken, and white pepper (if using). Serve drizzled with sesame oil.
