Ingredients

  • 1-2 individual mung bean noodle portions sometimes one is not enough for me to fill me up, so sometimes I grab two
  • hot water to soak mung bean noodles
  • 2 1/2 cups water
  • 1.5 tsp mushroom broth granules or you can simply use 2 cups of unsalted vegetable broth instead of the 2 cups water
  • 1 scallion whites roughly chopped and green parts finely sliced
  • 1 generous handful spinach or kale, yu choy, gai lan, whichever green you'd like!
  • 1 tsp toasted sesame oil
  • 1 tsp Miso paste white or red works fine
  • Black and white sesame seeds to garnish
  • Feel free to add your favourite fried tofu bean sprouts, or any other favourite proteins

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Soak the glass noodles in hot water to soften prior to cooking.
  2. Bring 2 cups of water to a boil and add mushroom granules (or boil the unsalted vegetable broth).
  3. Add scallion whites once water is boiling. Drain the glass noodles, then add them to the pot.
  4. Cook until noodles are -almost- clear. They'll still be quite thin and will feel softer and almost nearly cooked.
  5. Add the spinach and green scallion parts, then continue cooking until noodles are done and spinach is bright and wilted (about 2 minutes).
  6. Feel free to add something like some chickpeas or fried tofu to the soup to absorb the flavour.
  7. Add the toasted sesame seed oil and whisk in the miso paste (I just keep it in a large spoon and use chopsticks to stir it in the spoon until it dissolves).
  8. Remove from heat, transfer to a bowl (or eat it straight out of a pot because... dishes) and garnish with some sesame seeds.
  9. Enjoy!
