Sweetened with brown sugar for a delicate caramel-like sweetness, this soup strikes the perfect balance between spicy and sweet.

Step 1
Slice the ginger and put it in a pot, add water and boil over high heat, then turn to medium-low heat and continue to simmer (the longer the cooking time, the spicier it will be, adjust the taste according to your preference).

Step 2
Remove the ginger slices and gently add an egg into the pot, wait until it is cooked and set (cook the egg to your desired doneness, but it’s not recommended to undercook it, overcooking is fine, just slightly runny yolk is the best).
