directions

  • Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil at the bottom of a soup pot over medium-high to high heat and add protein of choice and stir fry: shrimp until just pink, chicken or pork until lightly browned. Add mushrooms, carrots and garlic, cook for 2 minutes, then add cabbage and wilt it, 5 minutes.
  • While cabbage cooks, add 2 tablespoons vegetable oil to a skillet and arrange pot stickers in it. Add 2/3 cup water and turn on to medium-high heat. Cook for 8 minutes to evaporate the water, then let the pot stickers brown 1 minute more.
  • Add scallions, soy sauce and black pepper and stir to combine, then add stock and bring to a boil. Stir in beaten eggs and continue to stir in pot until they are cooked and scattered throughout the stoup.
  • Place a few pot stickers in the bottom of a soup bowl and top with soup.

  1. I was so surprised by how much this tasted like mu shu chicken! I've never used pot stickers, and I was pleasantly surprised by the use of these as dumplings in this soup. I liked this so much, I ate it twice today!! Thanks for sharing.
     
  2. I made this for my family tonight and the 2 adults and eldest child loved it....the 3 younger kids...not so much...but they tend to be picky. My DH says this is the best Chinese soup recipe I have ever made, and I would have to agree. I used 1/2 large head of savoy cabbage and 4 oz of shitake and 4 oz of oyster mushrooms. This was a winner in my book!
     
  3. I made this for my large family. I used shrimp as my protein and I used a little cayenne to spice it up a bit. Everyone loved it!!
     
  4. Yum! What a fun soup. I made this as directed, except that I scaled it down for 2 people. I used chicken and pork-and-veggie potstickers. Very easy and tasty. Thanks iewe for sharing this one. Made for ZWT4 Family Picks.
     
  5. I love Mu Shu, so I could not resist trying this. I am so glad I did. The only thing I left out was the pot stickers, since they are hard to come by here. Added Carrots, Shiitake mushrooms, bamboo shoots, peas, scallions, cauliflower, Napa cabbage, and red pepper for more than 5 veggies. I will make this again and again. Made for ZWT4.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I am the mother of three, wife of one :) My teenager is the pickiest eater in the world, while my 3 year old will eat anything (though has been acting more and more fickle lately). Our newest addition was born in June 2008, so she doesn't really know much in the way of varieties of food. My husband says "I don't care what you fix, as long as it has meat in it." I have thousands of recipes saved on my computer from over the years, and am constantly on the lookout for new ones. I also seem to have accumulated hundreds of cookbooks over the years. I am (slowly) trying to go thru all the recipes I have saved and add them to 'Zaar, but this will take some time. I try to only post things that my family (or I) will eat (though I haven't necessarily yet tried every recipe I have posted). <img src="http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y53/DUCHESS13/cookbookswap.jpg"> <img src="http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y53/DUCHESS13/Zaar%20World%20Tour%203/ZWT3-Participation.gif"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/captain.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i161.photobucket.com/albums/t237/akplongmeadow/ZWT3b.jpg"> <img src="http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b280/carolinamoon21/Stockingswapcopy.jpg"> <img src="http://i174.photobucket.com/albums/w115/bugh8er/food%20and%20swaps/4811_39528.png" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/Adopted1smp.jpg" border="0" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket"> <img src="http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a132/tgifford/Game%20Room%20Banners/AM%20Banners/ZaarStar-AMBanner.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/smPACp.jpg" border="0" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket"> <img src="http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y53/DUCHESS13/Zaar%20World%20Tour%204/ZWTAB-tg.gif"> <img src="http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a132/tgifford/Game%20Room%20Banners/AM%20Banners/potluckpbanner.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i195.photobucket.com/albums/z205/jubespage/kid-friendlytag-participation2.gif"> <img src="http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y164/lauralie41/cookbookswapspring08-2.jpg"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/IWasAdoptedfall08.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj81/HokiesLady65/123HitAMpage.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/PACfall08partic.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i195.photobucket.com/albums/z205/jubespage/stacky5.jpg"> <img src="http://i497.photobucket.com/albums/rr336/jess4freedom/Zaar%20banners/Kid-Friendly-Tag.jpg"><img src="http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e110/flower753/Food/my3chefsnov2008.jpg"> <img src="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a24/ohohkatie/MARCHTAG1.jpg"> <img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Iwasadopted.jpg"> <img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Participation.jpg"> <img src="http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/Animation6.gif"> <img src="http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/PACsticker-Adopted.jpg">
