Time 2h44m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 ¾ cups chicken stock
3 cilantro roots
1 ⅓ tablespoons grated fresh ginger
1 (1-inch) piece lemongrass
1 teaspoon tamarind paste
1 clove garlic, crushed
1 star anise pod
2 ounces dried rice noodles
4 ounces skinless, boneless chicken breast, cut into 4 strips
¼ cup grated carrots
⅓ cup snow pea shoots, tops only
4 leaves bok choy
2 tablespoons mung bean sprouts
1 tablespoon grated daikon radish
1 sprig cilantro, leaves picked
5 leaves fresh mint
1 fresh hot red chile, chopped

Steps:

  • Pour chicken stock into a saucepan over medium heat. Add cilantro roots, ginger, lemongrass, tamarind paste, garlic, and star anise pod. Bring to a gentle simmer; cook until flavors combine, about 1 hour. Cool to room temperature, 1 hour to overnight.
  • Place noodles in a large bowl and cover with hot water. Set aside until noodles are softened, about 15 minutes. Drain well.
  • Strain off the top of the cooled stock, leaving as much sediment as possible. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to bring to a simmer. Add chicken; cook for 5 minutes. Add rice noodles, carrots, snow pea shoots, bok choy, mung bean sprouts, and daikon. Cook until chicken is no longer pink in the center, about 5 minutes more.
  • Serve soup with cilantro leaves, mint leaves, and chile on the side.

This soup is a bit too spicy for my taste. I would recommend using less chili paste if you don't like spicy food.

This soup is a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra ginger and garlic to give it more flavor.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I used rotisserie chicken and it worked perfectly. The soup was delicious and very filling.
