Ingredients
  

  • 8 ounces rice noodles
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 medium onion diced
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger grated
  • 6 cups vegetable broth
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce

  • 1 cup sliced mushrooms shiitake or button

Method
 

  1. Cook the rice noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.

  4. Pour in the vegetable broth, soy sauce, sesame oil, and red pepper flakes (if using). Bring to a boil.
