Egg Roll Soup - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 tablespoons vegetable oil, plus more (for frying)
    2 lbs boneless pork ribs, sliced thin (chicken is fine, too)
    4 garlic cloves, minced
    1 small head of cabbage, shredded (about 6 cups)
    2 small carrots, shredded (about 1 cup)
    1 small bunch green onion, sliced (about 1/2 cup)
    8 cups chicken stock (I used 50-50 veggie & beef stock instead)
    1 teaspoon ginger, freshly grated
    1/4 cup soy sauce, plus more for serving
    10 egg roll wraps, cut into thin strips
Preparation
    Heat oil in a large soup pot and saute pork until no longer pink.
    Add garlic and cook until fragrant.
    Toss in remaining ingredients (except egg roll wrappers) and bring to a boil.
    Reduce to a simmer and cook for 30 minutes until vegetables are soft.
    Meanwhile, cook strips of egg roll wrapper in hot oil in small batches until browned and crisp. This only takes a minute or so per batch.
    Drain well on paper toweling.
    When soup is done, ladle into bowls and top with fried egg roll wrappers and extra soy sauce, if needed.
