Ingredients

The following ingredients have 8 Servings
  • 1 lb ground Beef or Pork (may be substituted with chicken or seafood [like shrimp], too)
  • 1 large Onion, (peeled and chopped)
  • 4 cloves Garlic, (peeled and crushed)
  • 2 inch size Ginger root, (peeled and sliced)
  • 1½ tbsp Fish Sauce, (or to taste)
  • 6 cups Beef broth or Water
  • 1 cup or 1 small canned cream-style corn
  • 1 cup frozen corn kernels, (unthawed)
  • 10 oz pack Spinach
  • Salt and pepper, (to taste)

Instruction

  • Place the ground pork or beef in a large pan. If your beef is extra-lean heat a little oil first. Stir to cook until the meat changes its color and starts releasing its fat.
  • Add the garlic, onion, and ginger. Cook until the onions are soft. Season with a little pepper and fish sauce.
  • Add the broth or water. Bring to a boil and simmer covered for 30 minutes. Add the corn and cook for another 5 minutes. Stir the spinach and cook just until wilted. Correct the seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.
  • Ladle into bowls and serve hot. You can have the soup on its own but in our house, we have it with rice naturally.
