Ingredients

7 total
  • 2 tbsp of white miso paste
  • 1 large egg
  • 30 g of spring greens, chopped
  • 1 handful of spring onions, chopped
  • 1 pinch of sea salt
  • 1 pinch of ground black pepper
  • 1 pinch of chilli flakes, optional

Method

3 steps
  1. Step 1

    Empty the miso into a saucepan, slowly stir in 250ml water so the miso dissolves and bring to a simmer (don’t let it boil).

  2. Step 2

    Gently crack a fresh egg into a small bowl, then carefully slide it into the simmering broth. Cook until the white is just set and the yolk is still runny, about 2 mins.

  3. Step 3

    Add the chopped greens and cook just until wilted, about 1 min. Sprinkle with spring onions and season with salt, black pepper and chilli flakes (optional).
