Default Egg Petal Soup (a variation on a theme)

This recipe book came with my Wok. I found it the other day and have made this soup several times. Guests and family agree that it is fabulous:

1.5 l Water
1 T/S Vinegar
1 T/S Soy Sauce
Slice of fresh ginger
1 Heaped T/S chicken stock
Extra Salt and ground black pepper to taste

1 Egg, beaten
1 tsp Sesame oil

Finely shredded lettuce
Finely cut spring onion (green part only)

Method

In a pot or wok, bring water to the boil with first 6 ingredients added. When soup is boiling add egg in a very thin stream, stirring constantly - the egg makes a fine cloud of petals. Add the sesame oil and boil for 1 minute.

At the bottom of a bowl put some shredded lettuce and spring onion. Ladle soup on top of this and enjoy.

To those who may ask - I have no idea of the carb content of this soup, but judging from the ingredients it can't be that high!
