Beef broth may be substituted for the water for a richer soup, but you may have to decrease the amount of salt.

SERVES 4 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1/2 lb fresh spinach
1 green onion, sliced
1 garlic clove, minced
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1/2 lb ground beef
1 teaspoon soy sauce
2 teaspoons salt (2 to 3)
pepper, to taste
4 cups water

Directions

1
Wash the spinach thoroughly, then trim off the thick stems.
2
Heat the sesame oil in a heavy-bottomed pot.
3
Brown the ground beef, separating while stir-frying.
4
Add the green onion, garlic, soy sauce, salt and pepper and stir-fry for 30 seconds.
5
Add the water, then the spinach.
6
Bring the soup to a boil, then lower the flame.

Totally authentic smell as the ingredients were sauteeing. I used Korean powdered beef broth and pureed it up with some soft tofu, and the results were wonderful.

The only Asian-style recipe I've ever made that tasted really good! Usually I have to leave this cuisine to the experts in the restaurants. Now I can make it at home and my family eats good, healthy soup. Excellent recipe!

A wonderfully light and fragrant soup. The sesame oil really makes this--it reminded me of wonton soup meets my (Italian) comfort soup. I tinkered with the beef broth and the soy sauce to get the right amount of flavor (no added salt needed). I used ground turkey instead of beef and dried onion instead of scallions. I'll definitely be making this again.

This is a great soup! I was recently put on a metabolic diet and Phase 1 is pretty much only veg and protein. When DR. said to try and do and much "dark green leafy" as you can, i started hunting for spinach recipes. This is an AWESOME soup!! Thanks for posting it.
