  4. Add Vegetables: Stir in shredded carrots and cabbage, reduce heat to a simmer, and cover for about 15 minutes until cabbage is tender.
  5. Optional Egg Swirl: Slowly drizzle in beaten eggs while stirring gently for about 1-2 minutes. Skip this step if you prefer a lighter soup.
  6. Final Seasoning and Serve: Taste and adjust with salt and pepper. Serve hot, garnishing with reserved green onions and red pepper flakes or Sriracha if desired.
