Spring Soup





Stock, any flavour (I like vegetarian "beef" broth made from mushrooms best)
minced garlic
Chopped green onions
Shredded carrots
1 tsp to 1 tbsp hot chili or pepper paste, as spicy as you like

Bring the above ingredients to a boil for a few minutes, and then stir in an egg quickly.

The soup is great just like that, but if you want to add a special treat, top it with crumbled goat cheese.

For a hardier soup, add cooked rice, or place cubes of whole spelt sourdough bread (or your favourite whole, healthy bread) and the goat cheese gently on top of the soup and broil it in the oven for five minutes. This soup is very versatile, so feel free to add mushrooms or whatever you have in the fridge. I love it because, in its simplest form above, it can be prepared and cooked in about 5-10 minutes since the green onions and shredded carrots cook so fast.
