Vegetable pho

Kelsi Boocock

Nothing beats noodles with a super flavoursome broth. No wonder they eat it for breakfast in Vietnam – what better way to start the day!

Ingredients

SERVES: 4

Method

  1. Combine leek, carrots, celery, ginger, onion, mushrooms and garlic in a large pot over medium heat with a splash of water to stop the vegetables from sticking.
  2. Once the vegetables start to soften, add water and cover with a lid. Once the stock comes to the boil, add soy sauce or tamari and lemon juice and leave to simmer for at least 1 hour (the longer you let the soup simmer, the more flavour you will create).
  3. Twenty minutes prior to serving, add bok choy, shiitake mushrooms and ramen noodles and leave to cook until noodles are soft.
  4. Serve with mung beans, chilli and spring onion.
