Quasi-oriental Mushroom Soup Recipe

	Michael / All my dishes 1 year, 6 months ago It's not a real 'Oriental' recipe, but it kept us all going when we were short of some cash, and wanted something tasty! A bit spicy, very filling (and possibly slightly better on day two!) soup, this is very popular round our house! Prep:5m Cook:25m Servings:4	Michael

Ingredients

500g Shiitake Mushrooms (usually, 2 packs)

1 Small Red Chilli

1 Medium Onion

2 Pak Choi

2 Spring Onions

1 Small bunch of Rice Noodles

Soy Sauce (Dark preferably)

Ginger

Garlic

Lime (if ya got it!)

Freshly ground Black Pepper

1.5 litres Chicken/Vegetable Stock (your choice!)

Directions

Slice finely (really!) about 1g Ginger, 1 clove of garlic, 1 chilli and 1 Onion

Whack some oil in a decent pot, and cook the garlic, chilli, onion and ginger over a low heat for 5-10 minutes (let the onions go clear).

Meanwhile, quarter the mushrooms, then add to the pot for 3 or 4 minutes.

Bring the heat up, then add the stock (bit by bit) and bring to the boil.

Add 1.5 to 2 desert spoons of soy sauce.

Add a good (and I mean _good_!) whack of black pepper, and cook for 10 minutes or so, making sure the mushrooms are cooked.

Meanwhile, prepare the Pak Choi (trim, and slice lengthwise), and snap the rice noodles in half (a handful is more than enough).

Add the noodles (according to pack times, these should take 2-4 minutes to cook).

At the same time, cut a slice of lime & squeeze it in.

A minute or so later, add the Pak Choi.

Simmer for 2-3 minutes.

Serve!

Being honest, I vary the amount of stock added based on what it looks like in the pot, but hopefully it'll work for you :). I love soup!
