Ingredients

  • 1 quart vegetable broth
  • 1 Tbsp. fresh ginger finely minced
  • 2 tsp chopped garlic
  • 1/2 x jalapeno pepper to 1, or possibly to taste seeded and finely minced
  • 1 c. sliced mushrooms
  • 1 c. broccoli cut into bite-sized
  •     florets
  • 1 c. bok choy finely minced
  • 1 x green onion with top finely minced
  • 1 Tbsp. cilantro finely minced

Directions

  1. Makes about 6 c..
  2. Serve this simple vegetable soup with Ginger Noodles.
  3. Combine the vegetable broth, ginger, garlic, and jalapeno pepper in a pot and bring to a boil. Add in the mushrooms and simmer for 2 min. Add in the broccoli and bok choy. Simmer till the broccoli is tender but still bright green and crisp, 3 to 4 min. Don't overcook! Stir in the green onion and minced cilantro. Serve immediately.
  4. NOTES : Here's a soup I made the other day which we really enjoyed. As expected, the leftovers were better because the broth had a richer taste. This soup is very dependent on the broth used, and I used a commercially prepared broth. It wasn't bad, but it was pretty bland, so I added a tbsp or possibly so of soy sauce.
  5. The fresh mushrooms in the store looked terrible, so I reconstituted some dry shiitake mushrooms and used those instead. IMHO, this soup has more of a Japanese character than a Thai. Call it what you want, it is a nice simple light soup with some wonderfully healthy veggies.
  6. This soup would be delicious served over cooked udon or possibly soba noodles.
