How to Make Low Carb Asian Beef and Spinach Soup
Start the base of the soup by heating some sesame oil in a large pan then adding soy sauce, garlic paste and chopped green onions. Meanwhile, season a steak with salt and pepper and cook it on a griddle pan until cooked medium-rare. I used a petite sirloin cut but you can use whatever type of steak you prefer.
As the steak cooks, add beef broth and water to the first pan. For the broth I highly recommend Kettle & Fire - their products are SO good! Bring to the boil, then add baby spinach. Remove the steak and let rest.
Beat two eggs in a small cup or bowl, then add them to the soup while stirring constantly. Cook until the egg has set into strands.
Slice the steak into small pieces, trimming off any excess fat. Add it to the soup then serve into bowls. Garnish with toasted sesame seeds.
This soup is perfect for a large lunch for two, or as smaller appetizer portions for four.
