01 / WHAT YOU NEED

Ingredients

3 cups water 2 tablespoons olive oil 1 (7 ounce) package fresh udon noodles 1 cup hot vegetable broth 1 large carrot, peeled and diced 1 large green bell pepper, diced ½ cup chopped celery ¼ cup soy sauce ½ cup chopped green onions

02 / HOW TO MAKE IT

Let's cook.

Step 1

Start by bringing some water and a splash of olive oil to a boil in a pot over medium-high heat. Once it’s bubbling, toss in the noodles and cook them for about 3 minutes, giving them a stir now and then so they don’t stick. Next, pour in the vegetable broth along with the chopped carrot, and let everything cook together for another minute while stirring. Add the green bell pepper, celery, and a good splash of soy sauce, then bring the soup back up to a boil and let it cook for one more minute. Finally, sprinkle the chopped green onions over the top before serving.
