Method

1. Heat the oil in a saucepan, tip in the ginger and mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened – about 3 minutes. Add the sliced bamboo shoots then cook for another minute. Stir in the spring onions and dried chillies, then the soy sauce, vinegar and stock. Simmer for 5 minutes.

2. Whisk the beaten egg into the boiling soup with a wire whisk. It will set in strands almost straight away. Serve immediately.
