Ingredients

  • 4 eggs
  • 1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 500 g pork mince
  • 2 spring onions sliced
  • 1 bunch bok choy chopped
  • 200 g mushrooms sliced
  • 1 L chicken stock
  • 250 g long life noodles

Instructions

  • Bring a medium saucepan of water to the boil. Add eggs and cook for 6 minutes for soft boiled. Drain and rinse under cold water. When cool enough to handle, peel eggs and cut in half.
  • Meanwhile, heat oil in a large frying pan over high heat. Add mince and cook, breaking up with a wooden spoon, for 10-12 minutes or until browned. Add half of the spring onion, bok choy, and mushrooms. Cook, with lid on, for 3-5 minutes or until softened.
  • Add 1L of chicken stock to a large saucepan over high heat. Once stock has boiled, add noodles, pork mixture, and soy sauce. Cook for 1-2 minutes or until heated through.
  • Divide noodles and broth among 4 bowls. Top with eggs, chilli oil and remaining spring onion. Enjoy!
