  4. Cover and simmer over medium-low heat for at least 15 minutes, opening once to stir so the seasonings mix evenly.

Cooking tips 💡

  • Instead of pork neck, you can freely use other pork cuts like pork shoulder, pork leg, or pork belly if that's what you have at home.
  • Bean sprouts and chives become tough if cooked too long, so add them at the final stage to keep their crisp texture.
  • Using anchovy sauce and oyster sauce instead of making a separate broth gives the soup a deep, rich flavor.
