Perfect for a crisp cool fall day. This recipe I tweaked. Read a story about a gay marriage in Ireland. The recipe was a quick soup that they both love, So made there own version when moving here to the States, a soup thats a staple in most restaurants in Ireland. They stated the closest they found to this soup in the US is egg drop soup.

    Remove from heat, and very slowly pour the egg into the soup. Using a figure eight with a fork, mix egg in the soup. Dont mix too fast or it will clump. Garnish with sliced green onions and serve. I had leftover sticky rice I served and boiled some noodles. Great with ramen noodles.
