Spicy Korean Noodle Soup

Ingredients

1 cup cabbage, chopped

1 cup celery, chopped

1 cup broccoli, chopped

1 cup carrots, julienned

1 tsp sesame oil

2 tsp garlic, minced

2 Tbsp chili pepper flakes

4 cups water

2 tbsp soy sauce

2 tbsp chili pepper paste

1½ cup lentils, already soaked

Rice Noodles, rinsed well

Instructions

In a large pot heat sesame oil, minced garlic, and pepper flakes over medium heat.

Add in cabbage, celery, broccoli, and carrots and cook over low-medium heat for 7 minutes or until slightly softened.

Add in water, soy sauce, and chili pepper paste.

Stir in lentils and Konjac Shirataki noodles.

Combine all well and alter seasonings to taste.

Let simmer for 15-20 minutes.

Serve hot.

Try not to have huge florets of broccoli, they get in the way if too big in the soup when eating.

At this stage the veggies will smell delicious.

The lentils are great for some depth and protein. I added already soaked lentils, not raw ones. If you don’t have them don’t worry.
