I favor the Shitake and Enoki combination or Crimini.Enough fresh, vegetable or egg noodles to make 2-4 cups cooked, depending upon how much noodle to broth ratio wanted.Beef, mushroom or vegetable stock with no slat, preferably home made and frozen in cubes, or use low salt commercial stock.Pepper or Bay leaf if desired. Chopped green onion and cilantro with small diced ripe tomato for garnish.Small Asian bok choy can be added if a one dish meal is wanted to provide the leafy green vegetable, but should be cooked seperately and added at the last.
Directions
Brown the meat and onions in a pot. When nicely browned add the liquid and Star Anise and any other herbs or pepper. Simmer, adding water when needed, until meat is fall apart tender.Pressure cooker can be used, but slow cooking is better. Turn up heat to boil and add the sliced mushrooms and noodles.
