I made this last night, thumbs up from everyone around the table. What can I say - Souper healthy, souper easy, souper delish, souper cheap. Also was perfect for my daughter who is fructose intolerant as you only use bruised onion and take it out leaving no onion flesh in the broth, I used my own homemade chicken broth. Thanks Marion, I love trying your recipes, I am learning so much from you and your mum. Please bring your sauces to Australia. 😋

Your voice and the way you speak is as soothing as the soup looks.

After watching a few of Marion's videos, I've easily concluded that this is a quality channel. The camera work is on point, her methodology makes sense and it's easy to follow, her instructional dialogue is easy on the ears, and IMO the most important aspect of this cooking channel is that her recipes are so refined that it makes you WANT to try them. I wish I would have discovered her sooner.

I was looking for a great egg drop soup recipe, and just finished watching at least 15 videos and was about to give up until I found yours! OMG thank you so much.

Corn Starch...thank you!!! I could not figure out why I kept failing at this and it never occurred to me to thicken the broth.

Marion, this soup looks so comforting. The dried shrimp is our secret ingredient too. A variation of egg drop soup would be to replace the eggs with pork belly and add in winter squash. Thank you.

Thank you Marion! THE Ultimate Egg Drop Soup! I love this recipe/soup! I like to add thai chili and corn! I love the technique with the 'smash' onion!
Thankyou, you made my night!

Wow, Marion. Egg drop soup never looked so good. I always choose wonton or hot and sour before egg drop, but you made it look scrumptious!😋 It never looks like this in restaurants that I’ve seen. Thanks for another great video. I’m excited to try it at home.

Made this and came out great, I edited to what I have and like, used leftover rotisserie from Costco, store bought broth, tablespoon of soy sauce ( broth was very low sodium and I doubled the recipe ) and added 1 diced carrot.

This is my favorite childhood dish ever. And you're right to add the dried prawns or dried shrimps. This is really typical Asian ingredients using this because it enhances the dish become more delicious and give the "umaminess" in this dish. Very
