Recipe video above. This is a really quick and easy soup recipe that's filling and nourishing. The Asian infused soup broth adapted from my Chinese Noodle Soup has a depth of flavour that belies the few ingredients called for. As for add ins - in the spirit of simplicity and speed, I've just used fish and choy sum. But you're only limited by your imagination!
