Ingredients

Measurements explained

Soup
½ teaspoon vegetable stock powder
1 teaspoon chilli sauce, e.g. Sriracha
2-3 slices dried mushrooms, e.g. shiitake or porcini (optional)
½ carrot, julienned
¾ cup shredded cabbage
½ cup edamame beans
100g firm tofu, cubed
87g (½ packet) fresh wholegrain noodles (we used Trident)
To garnish
1 tablespoon sliced spring onion
fresh chilli, sliced

Always check food labels for allergens or trace warnings before buying your ingredients.

Instructions

Stay Awake

(Stops screen from sleeping)

1 Layer all soup ingredients in a 750ml capacity or larger jar in the order listed. Keep garnishes in a separate container.

2 When ready to eat, open the jar, fill with boiling water and close and seal the lid. Leave to soak for 2 minutes.

3 Open the jar, stir noodles well and tip into a bowl if desired. Top with spring onions and chilli.

Variations

Make it gluten free: Use gluten-free noodles and check stock, chilli sauce and tofu are gluten free.

HFG tip

Use ‘shelf-fresh’ noodles, which are precooked and just need to be heated by pouring over boiling water. Break up with a fork before adding to the jar.
You could also use noodles from instant noodle packs, but check the labels on these — some contain palm oil, which makes them high in saturated fat.
Or use noodles you’ve precooked. Run them under cold water before packing in the jar.
