Instructions

  1. Combine dried mushrooms and 1 cup (250ml) boiling water in a small bowl. Stand for 20 minutes or until mushrooms are softened. Drain. Snip off mushroom stems and discard. Slice mushroom caps.
  2. Combine cabbage, shiitakes, soy sauce, vinegar, sriracha and ginger in a 4.5 litre (18-cup) slow cooker. Add stock. Cook, covered, on high for 3 hours (or low for 6 hours).
  3. Add eggs to cooker in a slow, steady stream, stirring constantly to form threads. Stir in corn, tofu, sesame oil and season with black pepper. Cook, covered, for 5 minutes or until corn is heated through. Serve sprinkled with shallots and basil.

Notes

Use regular basil if purple is not available. Upgrade to a heartier main dish by stirring in 500g of cooked peeled and deveined medium prawns along with the corn.
