Simple Healing Broth and Super Noodles
Introduction from Gemma Ogston
This is my ultimate go-to comfort soup that I make whenever I’ve been ill or am just feeling a bit low and out of sorts. It instantly makes me feel better – and is so simple to make. Miso is full of probiotics to give your gut health a helping hand if you’ve been experiencing nausea or digestive issues, and if you’ve been sweating out a fever, the saltiness will help replace those lost electrolytes. If your appetite isn’t quite there yet, leave out the noodles, tofu and spinach; the simple light broth will help soothe your stressed-out system.
Ingredients
Method
Mix the miso paste in a little hot water until dissolved. Set aside.
Sauté the garlic in the oil in a pan over a medium heat for about 2 minutes or until soft.
Add the mushrooms, carrots, pak choi, spring onions, and soy sauce to the pan. Cook for about 5 minutes or until soft.
Add the water, and the miso paste mix, and bring to the boil.
If you are having noodles, add them now and cook for 2 minutes. Add the spinach and tofu at this point too. Serve hot.
