Ingredients

Main Ingredients (2 servings)

  • Daikon Radish 200g
  • Vermicelli 60g
  • Canned Whole Scallops 1 can
  • Dried Shrimp 1 tbsp
  • Scallion 1 tbsp
  • Ginger 1 tsp
  • Kombu Broth 500ml
  • Green Scallion (for garnish) (to taste)
  • Ground Pork 200g
  • Grated Japanese Yam 20g
  • Beaten Egg 1 tbsp
  • Ginger 1/2 tsp
  • Potato Starch 1 tsp

Seasonings

  • Refined Sesame Oil 2 tbsp
  • Cooking Sake (Rice Wine) 2 tbsp
  • Salt (to taste)
  • Pepper (to taste)
  • Soy Sauce (to taste)
  • Sesame Oil 1 tsp
  • [A] Soy Sauce 1 tsp
  • [A] Oyster Sauce 1 tsp
  • [B] Salt (to taste)
  • [B] Pepper (to taste)

Steps

  1. Heat 2 tbsp Refined Sesame Oil in a pot over low heat, and stir-fry about 1/4 of the 200g Ground Pork.
  2. Once the ground pork turns white, add 1 tsp Ginger, 1 tbsp Dried Shrimp, 1 tbsp Scallion, and 1 can Canned Whole Scallops, then increase heat and stir-fry.
  3. Add 2 tbsp Cooking Sake (Rice Wine) and 500ml Kombu Broth. Once it boils, add 60g dried Vermicelli as is and simmer over low heat for 4-5 minutes.
  4. In a bowl, combine the remaining 150g Ground Pork, 1 tsp Soy Sauce, 1 tsp Oyster Sauce, a pinch of Pepper, 1 tbsp Beaten Egg, and 1/2 tsp Ginger, and mix well.
  5. Add 20g Grated Japanese Yam and mix until sticky. Adding Japanese yam (or tofu) makes the meatballs tender and helps them bind well with the vermicelli and daikon radish. Add a pinch of Salt and 1 tsp Potato Starch, and mix again.
  6. Shape the meatball mixture into golf ball-sized portions and drop them into the pot using a spoon.
  7. Once all the meatballs are in the pot, cover and simmer over medium heat for 4-5 minutes.
  8. Add 200g thinly sliced Daikon Radish to the pot (while raw) and cover. Simmer over medium heat for 5 minutes.
  9. Taste the soup and adjust seasoning with a pinch of Salt, a pinch of Pepper, and a pinch of Soy Sauce. Slicing the daikon radish perpendicular to its grain allows it to cook faster and absorb the soup's flavor more effectively.
  10. Finish by drizzling 1 tsp Sesame Oil. Serve in bowls and garnish with Green Scallion (to taste). Enjoy!
