Method
- Slice the mushrooms and peel the ginger, then cut it into thin matchsticks. Quarter the pak choi lengthways, slice the spring onions and cut the tofu into 1.5 cm cubes.
- Bring 800 ml of water to the boil in a large pot. Add the ginger and mushrooms and simmer for 8 minutes to make a light broth.
- Add the rice noodles, tofu and pak choi and simmer for 4 minutes, or the time on the noodle packet, until the noodles are soft and the pak choi stalks are tender.
- Take the pot off the heat. Ladle a little hot broth into a mug, stir in the miso paste until smooth, then pour it back into the pot.
- Taste, and add a little more miso or a splash of water if needed. Do not boil the soup again, as that dulls the miso.
- Share the soup between two bowls and scatter the spring onions on top.
Tip Miso varies in strength, so add it a spoonful at a time. White miso is milder, and darker red or brown miso is saltier.
