  1. In a large soup pot over medium-high heat, brown the ground pork for 5–7 minutes, breaking it apart until cooked through. Season with salt and pepper.
  2. Add the diced onion, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Sauté for about 3–4 minutes until the onions are translucent.
  3. Pour in the soy sauce, sesame oil, and rice vinegar, stirring to combine. Add the chicken broth and bring to a gentle boil.
  4. Stir in the shredded carrots and green cabbage, lowering the heat to a simmer for approximately 15 minutes.
  5. If desired, slowly drizzle the beaten eggs into the simmering soup while stirring gently to create ribbons of egg.
