  1. BUBBLING BROTH

    Boil a full kettle. Place a large pot over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the spring onion whites, the curry paste (to taste), and the grated garlic and ginger. Fry for about 1 minute, shifting constantly, until fragrant. Add the stock, 400ml of boiling water, and the soy sauce. Mix until fully combined. Reduce the heat until a gentle simmer.

  2. CHEEKY CHICKY

    Pat the chicken dry with paper towel. Once the broth is gently simmering, lower the chicken into the broth and leave to poach for 10-12 minutes until cooking through. Remove from the broth and place on a cutting board. Using two forks (one to secure the chicken and the other to shred), gently shred the chicken and set aside. Remove the broth from the heat and season with a sweetener of choice and a pinch of salt. Cover to keep warm until serving.

  3. OODLES OF NOODLES

    Using a shallow bowl, submerge the noodles in boiling water and add a pinch of salt. Give them a stir, cover with a plate, and set aside to soak for 8-10 minutes until cooked through and glassy. Drain on completion and toss through some oil to prevent sticking.

  4. PRETTY PAK CHOI

    Separate the leaves of the trimmed pak choi and rinse well. Place a pan, with a lid, over a medium heat with a splash of water. When hot, add the pak choi, cover with the lid, and steam for 3-5 minutes until wilted. Drain on some paper towel and season.

  5. ALMOST THERE…

    Add ½ the shredded chicken, ½ the chilli flakes (to taste), and some seasoning to the bowl with the cooked noodles. Toss until fully combined.

  6. BEAUTIFUL BROTH

    Bowl up the hearty chicken noodles. Pour over the spicy broth. Top with the remaining shredded chicken, the julienne carrots and the pak choi. Sprinkle over the remaining chilli flakes (to taste), the sesame seeds and the spring onion greens. Dive right in, Chef!
