This vegan recipe has no crap in it. Choose your soy sauce wisely. I use rice noodle because they are lovely and light but you can use any noodles you like. And like all my recipes, you can omit anything you do not like and replace with what you do.
In the meantime, chop the white onion and lemongrass. Keep half of the chopped white onion back for your broth. Add to the pot.
Slice the ginger thinly and add half to this stock. Chop the turmeric and add too. No need to peel these.
Half the chili lengthways. Roughly chop one half and along with the lime leaves, cloves, add to the pot.
To make the broth. In a large pot, add a little sesame oil
Slice the shitake mushrooms and chili, add to the pot with the remaining white onion and ginger. Stirring until the mushrooms have softened and lightly colored.
When you are happy with the flavor of your stock, pass it through a strainer. Pour into the pot with the mushrooms.
When your noodles are cooked, add the green vegetables, stir well into the pot and take off the heat. Leave to the side for 5 minutes then serve.
Get into a habit of creating health broths like this, make extra so you can have it the next day too. It is always so damn good the following day.
