How to Make Asian Vegetable Soup With Noodles
- Heat vegetable oil in a large saucepan over medium-low heat. Add sliced scallions, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant (about 1 minute).
- Pour in soy sauce and red pepper flakes. Stir to combine.
- Add water and vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer.
- Add sliced carrots and simmer for 5 minutes.
- Stir in sliced Napa cabbage and salt. Simmer for another 5 minutes.
- Add chopped bok choy and lemon zest. Simmer until bok choy is tender-crisp, about 5 minutes.
- While the soup simmers, cook vermicelli noodles according to package directions in a separate pot of boiling salted water (usually about 9 minutes). Drain and toss with sesame oil.
- Divide cooked noodles among four bowls.
- Ladle the hot soup over the noodles. Serve immediately and enjoy!
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
