Japanese Peasant Stew
1 minced onion, then add:
3-5 stalks celery, diagonally cut
3-5 carrots, diagonally cut
1 medium-size head bok Choy, diagonally cut (romaine lettuce or kale would work, as well)
1 bundle brown rice sticks or Ming bean threads (noodles)
1 Tbsp each: salt, and garlic or onion powder
2 Tbsps sesame oil
4 Tbsps soy sauce (Bragg's Liquid Aminos is free of wheat, refined sugars and preservatives)
Chopped green onions (optional
8-12 hard-boiled eggs, peeled.
In a large soup pot, sauté the first group of ingredients in a little oil. Cover with water (about 3 quarts) and simmer until crisp-tender 10-15 minutes, then add remaining ingredients inc. the boiled eggs. Simmer 5 minutes longer. Serve with a dollop of "mock sour cream" (2
Cup healthy mayo with 3 Tbsps lemon juice).
Comments:
I'm usually generous with the carrots, celery and noodles and sometimes add in frozen peas. I use 2 baby bok choys. I usually half and half the garlic and onion powders.
