Ingredients
Method
Start cooking opens one step at a time with read-aloud and hands-free voice control — “next”, “repeat”, “how much salt”, “timer 10 minutes”.
Tips
Make extra: Hot and Sour Soup reheats well, so cook a double batch and the planner can use the leftovers for lunch the next day. Halal version: swap the pork for beef, lamb or chicken thigh; add a little extra oil as they are leaner. Get ahead: most of the prep can be done the night before, and the dish is often better reheated the next day.
