Ingredients

6 cups of vegetable broth
1 block of extra firm tofu
3 brown ramen noodle cakes
1/2 pound of chopped bok choy
1/2 pound of cabbage
2 tablespoons of minced garlic
2 teaspoons of red pepper flakes
1 cup of shiitake mushrooms
3 tablespoons of miso paste
4 tablespoons of vegetable oil
1 tablespoon of grated ginger
1 tablespoon of chili sauce

Instructions

Begin by preparing the tofu. Press the excess moisture out of the tofu block using a tofu press. Alternatively, you can press the tofu block between two plates and then slowly press the tofu by placing cookbooks on top, allowing the weight to press the liquid out of the tofu.
Cut the tofu into slices roughly one inch in thickness. Place these sliced tofu pieces in a single layer on a baking sheet and cook them for roughly twenty minutes at 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Bring roughly half the oil to medium heat in a large soup pot. Add half of the garlic and stir using a wooden spoon, cooking until fragrant. Chop both the bok choy and the cabbage into easily eaten pieces; sautee them in the garlic for around four minutes, until they are fully softened.
Add the mushrooms and continue to cook until the mushrooms are softened, which should take around three more minutes.
Add the broth, remaining oil, garlic, ginger, red pepper flakes, and chili sauce. Bring to a rolling boil.
Sample the broth and adjust the flavors as necessary. For more deep, flavorful heat, add more red pepper flakes. For more salt, add a splash of soy sauce.
Reduce the heat to a simmer, and then cook the noodles according to the instructions on their packaging.
Once the noodles have fully cooked, remove the pot from the heat entirely.
Just before serving, mix the miso paste with a small amount of water. Stir this into the soup, give a final stir, and portion the soup into individual bowls. Though it keeps well, this soup is best enjoyed the same day.
