If you're looking for an easy and vegetarian dinner, look no further! This Vegetable Thukpa (Tibetan Noodle Soup) is a delicious noodle soup that only takes 15 minutes to make.
What Ingredients Do I Need For This Vegetable Thukpa (Tibetan Noodle Soup)
What I love about this noodle soup, is that it's full of flavour, simple to make, and vegetarian. If you'd like to add meat to it, then feel free to, and swap out the veggie stock with chicken or beef broth. However, the veggie version is so vibrant and tasty, I personally wouldn't add meat.
So, you'll need the following ingredients:
- Egg noodles, I bought fresh ones but you can use dry ones too
- Tomato
- Green chilli
- Ginger
- Garlic
- Red onion
- Chilli powder
- Cumin powder
- Turmeric powder
- Garam masala curry powder
- 500ml Vegetable stock
- Green peas
- Carrot
- Pepper
- Salt
- Soy sauce
- Spring onion
- Fresh coriander
- Lemon
In terms of vegetables...I've used peppers, peas, and carrot in this recipe. However, feel free to add whatever veggies you fancy, or whatever you have in your fridge. This soup would also do nicely with tofu, cabbage, courgette, aubergine, green beans, and so much more! Just experiment!
