Thai Noodle Soup

This soup is soooo simple to make and has really nice clean flavours.

You Will Need:

600ml chicken stock
1 Pak Choi sliced
2 chopped spring onions
Shitake mushrooms sliced
a good dash of soy sauce
a good dash of oyster sauce
Sesame oil
Chopped baby corn or sliced water chesnuts
150 - 200g raw peeled prawns (cooked will do but raw will give greater flavour and be more tender)
Thai rice noodles (1 bundle should be enough)
Dried chilli flakes (optional)
1 tbs white sugar
Salt and white pepper

Pour the stock into a pot and bring it the boil then reduce to as gentle simmer. Skim off any foam that may form on the top. Add the water chesnuts if you are using them, if not add the baby corn. Now add the mushrooms and the prawns. Add a good dash of soy and oyster sauce and the white sugar. Season with the salt and pepper to your own taste. Now add a sprinkle of chilli flakes and the sliced pak choi followed by a bundle of dried rice noodles. Don't allow the soup to boil but simmer gently for no more than 5 minutes (more if the prawns aren't cooked through.) Serve in bowls and add the spring onion as a garnish and a smal drizzle of sesame oil. Then simply enjoy!
