ByziKids just love to fix their own bowls of this delicious soup from a buffet of fresh, wholesome ingredients that you prepare for them.
Ingredients
1/4 cup
Soy sauce, tamari
1 fruit
Lime
(Juice and zest of)
2 clove(s)
Garlic
(minced)
1 piece, 1-inch
Ginger root
(grated)
4 cup
Water
1/4 tsp
Red pepper flakes
((to taste))
1/2 Pod
Star Anise
1 clove
Cloves
(whole)
227 gm
Pasta, Vermicelli, dry
(whole wheat is great; or japanese/ramen noodles)
4 cup
Mixed vegetable salad
(all thinly shredded; such as: cabbage, carrot, daikon, mushrooms, zucchini, (I like to use a mandolin slicer to get really thin shreds for these); baby spinach, etc.)
Instructions
Place soy sauce, lime, garlic, ginger, pepper flakes,
and spices into a soup pot. Then add the water and bring it to a boil, then turn it down and allow it to simmer for a few minutes. Taste for seasoning and
add a bit of salt if necessary, then just keep it on a
low simmer.
Meanwhile, in a separate pot of boiling salted water, cook the
noodles until almost tender, then drain and rinse
them and divide them into individual soup bowls.
Add the thinly sliced vegetables to the individual
soup bowls, decoratively keeping them separated
into little sections; OR do as WE do at our house
and prepare a buffet tray of ingredients and let
everyone prepare their own bowls!
When ready to serve, bring your Hot Pot of broth to
the table and ladle over everything in the bowls and
allow it to steep for a moment or two, just to soften the vegetables.
Garnish with your favorite toppings and enjoy!
