Quick Hot Pot

This spicy brothy asian noodle soup is perfect when you are feeling a little under the weather. You can change up the veggies to whatever you like. Jovial cassava spaghetti is a great replacement for toothy hearty soba noodles, but Aproten noodles would also work here. We make a big batch of the broth and add firm tofu to ours to bump up the protein for the rest of the family

Ingredients

Broth

1 tablespoon Canola Oil
3 Garlic sliced thin
2 teaspoons Ginger Root peeled and grated
4 cups Vegetable Broth preferably Swanson
1/4 cup Kobmu 1 piece, optional
1/4 cup Cilantro Stems left intact
1/2 teaspoon Sambal Oelek Chili Paste to taste (we add 1 to 1.5 tsp but like it spicy)
1 tablespoon La Choy Soy Sauce
1 tablespoon Bragg's Coconut Aminos
1 teaspoon Honey

The Rest

8 ounces Spaghetti, Cassava
1 tablespoon Canola Oil
1 Raw Carrots peeled and cut into thin matchsticks
2 cups Bok Choy thinly sliced
1/2 cup Broccoli stem peeled and cut into matchsticks, florets broken into small pieces
1 teaspoon Toasted Sesame Oil
1 tablespoon Miso Paste optional
3 tablespoons Scallions, white & green parts thinly sliced
1/4 cup Cilantro

Method

Warm the canola oil in a large pot. Add in the garlic and ginger. Heat for a minute to release the flavors. Add the vegetable broth, kombu, cilantro stems, soy sauce, coconut aminos, sambal oleek and honey. Let it simmer while you prepare the remaining ingredients.
Bring large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook pasta until al dente (about 8 minutes jovial, 5 minutes for aproten). Drain and set aside.
In a skillet, heat oil and add carrots and broccoli stalk matchsticks. After a minute, add the bok choy and florets. Saute briefly on medium heat for about 2 minutes.
Remove and discard kombu and cilantro stems from the broth. Add vegetables and noodles to broth. Let simmer for another 3 to 5 minutes. Finish with toasted sesame oil, cilantro and scallions.
If adding miso, place in a bowl and add 1/4 cup of the warmed broth to make a paste. Add back into the pot, making sure it does not boil as miso has beneficial probiotics in it that will get destroyed if boiled.

Notes

Flexi Phe: To lower the protein in this recipe, omit the miso, replace soy sauce with additional coconut aminos and use low protein pasta. To increase the protein, replace coconut aminos with soy sauce and use rice noodles.
