"Noodle Soup" is a comfort food for global cuisines. It is just boiled noodles added to soupy flavours of your choice. That's the magic of noodle soup: you can have either a light and watery or a rich, creamy version, depending on your mood or choice. The noodles can be any type and can be as thinly made from rice as thicker wheat-based noodles, similar to udon or ramen. Typically boiled first and later added to the hot broth, these noodles absorb a lot of flavours and eventually become delightfully soft and tender. Though noodles may make up much of this dish, the broth is often a highlight, achieved by simmering bones, vegetables, herbs, and spices. Depending upon the course of origin, it can be clean and subtle, such as Japanese "ramen" or Vietnamese "pho", or rich and savoury, like Chinese "wonton soup". Noodle soup is a filling meal, no short of being healthy and warm, and significantly more so during the winter. It's also the perfect choice when you're feeling a bit under the weather. Let's explore the recipe of noodle soup.

Ingredients required for Noodle Soup

  1. 4 cups chicken broth
  2. 1 tbsp olive oil
  3. 1 smalll onion
  4. 2 garlic clove
  5. 2 cup mixed vegtables
  6. 1 tsp fish sauce
  7. 1 tbsp soy sauce
  8. 1/2 tsp pepper flakes
  9. 2 tbsp green onion
  10. Noodles
  11. 2 tbsp fresh cilantro
  12. 1 inch ginger

Cooking steps for Noodle Soup

  1. 1
    Add the chicken or vegetable broth and 2 cups of water to a large pot. Right before it boils, add some soy and fish sauce to add depth to your recipe. Add some salt.
  2. 2
    Heat one tablespoon of olive or sesame oil over medium flame as the broth starts boiling. Add slices of onion, garlic, and ginger.
  3. 3
    Fry for 2-3 minutes until aromatic and the onions turn translucent. Now you will feel the oil basking in flavours, giving an additional dimension to your soup.
  4. 4
    Add the saut ed aromatics to the cooking broth. Then add your mixed veggies/carrots, mushrooms, bok choy, spinach, or any of your favourite vegetables. Let the vegetables cook in the broth for about 5-7 minutes or until the vegetables are tender. You can add any quick-cooking ingredients, such as spinach or leafy greens, towards the end to avoid overcooking.
  5. 5
    While your broth and vegetables are simmering, cook your noodles in a separate pot. Rice noodles, ramen, and egg all work, although the cooking time may vary with each. Cook your noodles as you like, and then drain them and put them aside.
  6. 6
    Add chicken, tofu, shrimp, or any meat/protein of your choice. If using chicken or beef, cook beforehand so you do not overcook. If you're using tofu, add it straight to the other broth ingredients and warm it through.
  7. 7
    Once the broth is made and the protein is warmed, it's time to make the soup. Place the cooked noodles into individual serving bowls. Next, pour the hot broth and vegetables over the noodles.
  8. 8
    Sprinkle with fresh cilantro or basil. Try adding some thinly sliced green onions on top to help intensify the flavours. If you like a citric flavour, serve it with lime wedges on the side.
  9. 9
    Sprinkle some chilli flakes or black pepper if you desire it to be spicier.
  10. 10
    Noodle soup makes for the perfect warm bowl of goodness. It can be served at home while creating a cosy meal with your favourite toppings and ingredients.

FAQs

What are the health benefits of noodle soup?

The noodle soup can be healthy, provided the ingredients are fresh and nutritious. The broth provides hydration and vitamins, with energy coming from the carbohydrates of the noodles, especially if the broth is made of simmered vegetables or lean meats. Rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, broths with vegetables may aid immunological health.

Can noodle soup be prepared ahead of time?

Yes, noodle soup can be prepared beforehand. However, the broth and the toppings must be stored separately. Cooking the noodles before serving is best because they become mushy if left there too long.

Can noodle soup be adapted to suit diet-specific requirements?

Yes, Noodle soup is very customisable and flexible to accommodate any diet. Use rice noodles or gluten-free pasta if the consumers are gluten-free.
