Dong Gui Ginger Lamb Soup, a nourishing Chinese tonic, warms the body, boosts circulation, and relieves fatigue—perfect for cold seasons. Here’s a simple yet authentic recipe:
Ingredients: 500g lamb (chopped into 2-inch pieces), 15g sliced ginger, 10g dong gui (angelica root), 1-2 goji berries, a pinch of salt, 1 tbsp cooking wine, and 4 cups water.
Steps:
1. Prepare the lamb: Soak lamb in cold water for 30 minutes to remove excess blood. Rinse and drain.
2. Sauté the aromatics: Heat a pot over medium flame. Add lamb and stir-fry until slightly browned. Pour in cooking wine to eliminate any gamey smell.
3. Simmer the soup: Add ginger, dong gui, and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer for 1.5–2 hours, until lamb is tender.
4. Season and serve: Stir in goji berries and salt. Simmer for 5 more minutes. Serve hot, preferably on an empty stomach for better absorption.
Tips: For a richer flavor, blanch lamb in boiling water before stir-frying. Adjust dong gui quantity based on personal preference—too much may add a bitter taste. This soup is ideal for postpartum recovery or those with cold hands and feet. Enjoy its warmth and health benefits!
