Comforting Noodle Soup

written by Emma Tang

comforting noodle soupI decided to make a comforting noodle soup for lunch today with the ingredients available in the fridge. Later tonight, when it’s morning in China, I’ll give my family a call. It’s been a while since I last talked to my mom. I want to tell my parents that I miss them and I miss her noodle soup.

Here is the recipe for this dish, hope you guys find it helpful. Feel free to replace some of the ingredients I used below with what’s available at your hand. I like this dish to be a free-style noodle soup that’s easy for everyone to make at home.

Spnach and Mushroom Noodle IngredientTo make a nutrition balanced meal, as well as a tasty soup base, for the main ingredients of this dish; I choose to use a small bunch of spinach, some oyster mushrooms (they’ll help release great flavors to the soup and I love the texture of the mushrooms), a couple of chicken meatballs. I used a Japanese-style Somen Noodle for this dish, it’s very soft and takes only a couple of minutes to cook.

Other than freshly chopped green onion, I also threw some fried onion for topping to add flavor for my noodle, but this is totally optional.  comforting noodle soup imageBelow is a overview of how to make this dish. The total time needed is about 25 minutes.How to make Spinich and Mushroom NoodleI hope you enjoy making this comforting noodle soup at home. If you like this recipe, please leave a rating and share it with your friends!
