Chinese Cabbage Soup with Noodles

A healthy and delicious vegetarian Chinese cabbage soup recipe with egg noodles and lentils in a chilled ginger and vegetable stock. It's also Slimming World friendly.

What a pleasant little number this is and so simple!  After a quick google search for a cabbage soup inspiration (I've had to rip up the cabbages hanging around from last season's harvest), I was intrigued with a combination using noodles.

I hadn't planned this recipe well as I never defrosted one of the many chicken breasts I've got in the freezer, so just used stock out instead and bulked up with red lentils, so this is easily vegetarian.

Recipe - Serves 4

• 1.3ltr water
• 3 vegetable stock cubes
• 80g red lentils (no soaking needed)
• 1 leek, sliced
• 1 onion, diced
• 1 clove of garlic
• 2cm grated fresh ginger
• 100g cabbage leaves, torn up
• 1 green pepper, deseeded & chopped
• 1 nest of dried egg noodles
• 1 tablespoon chilli sauce (the only syns)
• 1 teaspoon light soy sauce
• Seasoning

1. Place all of the ingredients except the chilli, soy and noodles and simmer for 30 minutes or until the lentils are cooked.
2. Now add the noodles as per instructed on the packet.
3. Stir in the soy and chilli and serve.
4. Why not tag me on Instagram with your soup?
