Hototay
Ingredients :
125 g. of boiled or steamed pork meat
75 g. of boiled or steamed pork liver
3-4 boiled chicken gizzards
6-8 steamed dumplings (recipe and instructions here)
7-8 c.of meat or chicken broth
a variety of mushrooms (shiitake, abalone, oyster or straw), a few pieces of each kind
1 carrot
1/4 head of native cabbage
1/2 head of garlic, crushed and peeled
1 onion, peeled, halved and thinly sliced
2 eggs
1 tbsp. of cooking oil
salt and pepper to taste
How to :
Cut the pork meat and liver into thin slices. Cut into 1/4″ x 2″ strips. Cut the gizzards into thin slices.
Peel and cut the carrot into florets or rings about 1/8″ thick.
Shred the cabbage.
If you’re using shiitake mushrooms, cut off the stalks and slice the caps thinly. If you’re using oyster, abalone and straw mushrooms, cut them in half.
Heat the cooking oil in a large saucepan or casserole. Saute the garlic and onions until fragrant. Pour in the broth. Add the carrots and bring to a boil. Season with salt and pepper. Add the meat, liver and gizzards and bring to another boil. Add the cabbage and let boil once more. Lastly, add the dumplings and the mushrooms. As soon as the soup boils again, count 5 seconds then turn off the heat. Add more salt, if preferred. Ladle immediately into a soup tureen. While still very hot, break two eggs on top of the soup. Stir in the eggs, breaking the yolks, and ladle into individual soup bowls immediately.

Hi Connie,
I added some sesame oil and it tasted good,my kasambahay doesn’t want egg at all and so I omitted eggs.Thanks for sharing this recipe.
you are both welcome.
I like my hototay with sea cucumber just like they serve it at the better Manila Chinatown restaurants of yesteryears. And yes, with sea cucumber, it makes it even more difficult to prepare. What with all the cleaning.
i was looking for hototay recipes and was glad there was 1 in your site. i searched some more in google, and found your recipe in another site:
Thanks for the info, Rachel. Sites with user submitted recipes encourage plagiarism big time.
