Maki soup is a Filipino-Chinese soup that consists of pork in a brown and very thick soup. Pork tenderloin is usually used in this dish because it is tender and takes less time to cook. The pork is first marinated in soy sauce, pepper and egg whites. The meat is then dropped and cooked in the boiling brown broth.  Tapioca starch is used to thicken the broth. The result is a thick soup with tender and flavorful pork pieces that is not only satisfying but also good to have on a cold windy day.
