Rice Noodle Soup with Shrimp​

A soothing and warming soup, great for cold nights or sore throats.

Ingredients


  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 4 baby bok choy, chopped (keep white and green parts separate)
  • 1 large carrot, peeled and very thinly sliced
  • 2 garlic cloves, crushed or finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, finely grated or chopped
  • 1 litre vegetable or chicken stock
  • 500 ml water
  • 2 tablespoons gluten-free soy sauce, tamari, or regular soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons fish sauce
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 115 g rice noodles (about half a 225 g packet)
  • 450 g raw prawns, peeled and deveined (small size)
  • 1 bunch spring onions, sliced

Method


  1. Heat the sesame oil in a large pot over medium-high heat.
  2. Add the white parts of the bok choy and the carrot. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  3. Add garlic and ginger. Cook for 1 more minute until fragrant.
  4. Pour in the stock and water. Stir in the soy sauce and fish sauce. Bring everything to a boil.
  5. Add the dry rice noodles. Cook for 2 minutes, gently stirring to separate them as they soften.
  6. Add the prawns, green bok choy leaves, and spring onions. Cook for another 2–3 minutes until the prawns are pink and cooked through.
  7. Turn off the heat. Stir in the rice vinegar just before serving.

Optional: Chicken Version


Prefer chicken instead of prawns?
Add sliced boneless, skinless chicken breast to the soup when you add the stock. Simmer until fully cooked, then remove, shred the meat, and return it to the pot before adding noodles.
