Ingredients

    150 gm firm tofu, cubed into small cubes
    1000 mils (1 liter) of water (I use filtered and hot from the kettle)
    2 teaspoons Massel Vegetable stock powder
    1 small onion, diced
    1 medium carrot, diced
    1/2 cup of frozen green beans
    100 gm DRY rice noodles (I use the fettuccine shaped noodles)

Tips

The intensity of the flavor of the soy sauce will depend on your choice of soy sauce. I've tried it with a dark strong soy sauce and found it was too strong in it's flavor and saltiness for us. I've used a milder soy sauce and the color is lovely and the soy sauce and the flavor was perfect. Hence I stick with the same soy sauce brand now. I always put the bottle of soy sauce on table and add a squirt if needed to the soup if I want extra flavor.

This dish must not have salt added. The saltiness of the soy sauce will give the soup it's saltiness. I've also at different times added different vegetables like shredded chinese cabbage, corn etc. Any vegetables will do.


Directions

In a medium to large saucepan (depending on the size of your saucepan), add the water, stock powder, onion and carrot. Place a lid on the saucepan, bring to the boil, and turn the heat down to low and simmer for 15 minutes. While it's cooking measure out the dry rice noodles, and measure out the soy sauce into a cup or glass. When the 15 minutes are up, turn up the heat and add the noodles, the green beans and the tofu. When boiling, turn down, keep covered and simmer 4-5 minutes depending on the instructions on your rice noodle packet. When cooked, turn the heat off and add the soy sauce. Give a good stir and served in 2 chinese soup bowls.
