How To Make A Vegetarian Noodle Soup

By Deborah Kennedy


Sometimes it is hard for those people that are following a strict diet to enjoy their food. They only have limited choices when it comes to the dishes they could eat because basically almost all foods out there are unhealthy. Sometimes, they would also crave for other dish but are unable to eat it because they think that consuming foods that are not so healthy may cause something bad for their health. But, when vegetarian pho recipes are introduced all over the internet, it has never been the same.

Apparently, pho is a Vietnamese noodle recipe but there were twists on it. For those that are vegetarian, it is a great news because this recipe is purely out of veggies. Now, there are means of eating exciting foods without being afraid whether or not it is unhealthy.

If thinking about trying to cook this thing out at home, here is a recipe and instruction on how it is supposed to be done. This may take an hour or so and patience is required. To begin with, prepare all the necessary ingredient which includes the following, cinnamon stick, onion, ground ginger, vegetable stock, soy sauce, garlic and anise. To make the soup, the ingredients are oil, tofu, scallions, lime, pepper, basil leaves and of course the noodles.

Notice that all the ingredients are pretty harmless for the diet. There is nothing that may seem so unhealthy all over the list. To continue the process, slice all the things that needs to be sliced and wash it thoroughly.

Now, it is time to begin the cooking steps. Place all the veggie stocks, soy sauce, onion, cinnamon, ginger, anise and bay leaves in a pot. Put enough water on it and boil them on its maximum. After it had boiled, reduce the heat and cover the pot. Simmer it down for about forty five minutes. This will mix up all the flavors of the boiling ingredients.

Right after the needed time for simmering, the next thing to do is remove the solids on the soup. Make sure to keep the broth hot then set it aside for a moment and cook the noodles. Cover the noodles with boiling water for about ten minutes. Drain it afterwards and divide it into a desired serving.

Now, cook the rest of the ingredients. The tofu should be fried until all sides turn golden brown before adding it on the broth along with the mushrooms. Simmer it again for five minutes then put on top the scallions.

The noodle can now be added on the soup. For the finishing touch, serve it with the lime wedges, pepper and bean sprouts. Add the basil along the bowl to serve as garnish. A delicious meal with great table presentation indeed.

Now that the dish is ready to eat, here is everything one should need to know about its nutrition content. A single serving has over seventy grams carbohydrate and more than four hundred calories. It does not have cholesterol but its sodium content is one thousand two hundred nine milligrams. Entirely sane and acceptable, now get ready to dig in to the savory flavor of a healthy noodle.
