Tasty chicken noodle soup
Serve the soy, chilli and other sauces alongside this basic soup and let each diner add their own favourite combinations.
Instructions
Put the stock, water, ginger, garlic and chilli into a large pot and bring gently to the boil. Once boiling, add the sliced chicken and bring back to a simmer. After about 5 minutes, once the chicken appears cooked, add the noodles. After another 3-4 minutes, add the beans and spinach. These will be cooked in about 2 minutes. Remove the pot from the heat.
Fish out the garlic, chilli and ginger and discard. Divide the noodles, chicken and vegetables between 4 bowls, then pour the soup into the bowls.
Serve with bowls of soy sauce, chilli sauce, sesame oil and any other favourite sauces.
