Method
Brown the turkey
Brown the turkey mince in the dry pot over medium-high heat, breaking it up with a spoon until cooked. Set aside.
5:00Soften onion & mushrooms
Add the oil to the pot and soften the onion, sliced and mushrooms, sliced for 3-4 minutes.
4:00Build the broth
Pour in the dashi or stock with the ginger, grated and soy sauce. Bring to a gentle simmer.
3:00Simmer
Return the turkey to the pot and add the cabbage, shredded. Simmer for 6-8 minutes until the cabbage is soft.
7:00Add egg ribbons
Beat the egg in a cup. Stir the broth in a slow circle, then pour the egg in a thin stream to form ribbons. Don't stir again for a few seconds.
Serve
Ladle into a bowl and top with the spring onion, sliced.
Notes
Around 380 kcal and 38g protein — light but filling thanks to the volume of broth and cabbage. Naturally lactose-free. Egg-ribbon trick: swirl the broth, pour beaten egg in a thin stream off a gentle simmer (not a rolling boil) so it sets into soft ribbons. Only 1 tbsp soy so it won't be too salty. Makes a big volume — easily splits into two portions. A nest of noodles or scoop of rice makes it heartier.
