Won Ton Noodle Soup

 

Won Ton Noodle Soup

Sometimes, all it takes is a very simple soup to satisfy midnight or any-time-of-day cravings. For this reason, the freezer is always stocked with Korean mandu or  dumplings that are available all over town. Baby bok choy freezes well, so the leaves are separated, washed, dried and packaged in Ziploc bags for the freezer. Fresh Pad Thai noodles, available at Asian markets, are also a staple item stored in the fridge. 

This soup uses only 4 ingredients, not counting the seasonings, and takes no more than 10 minutes to assemble.

Ingredients (makes 1 serving)

2 cups chicken broth
1 bundle baby bok choy
4 dumplings of choice, store-bought or homemade
a handful fresh, thin Pad Thai rice noodles
small knob ginger, minced (optional)
1/2 tsp. chicken powder or Ajinomoto
salt and pepper to taste

Directions
  1. Place broth and dumplings in a saucepan and bring to a boil.
  2. Simmer over medium heat for 3 minutes.
  3. Add remaining ingredients and simmer for 3 more minutes.
  4. Garnish with sliced scallions, if desired.
  5. Transfer to a soup bowl and enjoy!
