Instructions
Step 1: Add all the broth ingredients to a saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat so the broth simmers gently. Simmer uncovered for 10 minutes.
Step 2: Add the choi sum stems and carrot to the broth. Simmer for 2 minutes. Add the choi sum leaves and simmer for another minute. Stir in the sesame oil just before serving.
Step 3: Meanwhile, cook the egg noodles in boiling water according to the packet directions. Drain, rinse the noodles briefly under tap water, and shake off the excess water well.
Step 4: Divide the noodles between bowls and top with the vegetables. Remove the garlic and ginger from the broth, then pour the broth over the noodles. Sprinkle with green onions and serve.
Notes
Substitutions and storage
Use mirin or dry sherry instead of Chinese cooking wine. For a non-alcoholic substitute, use another 1½ teaspoons fish sauce.
Use light or all-purpose soy sauce, not dark soy sauce. Fish sauce can be replaced with more soy sauce.
Swap the noodles for another type, or use other Asian greens in place of choi sum. The vegetables can also be changed to your preference.
Store the broth and noodles separately in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat them separately, then combine.
