There's nothing that soothes quite like a good soup, especially when it starts to cool outside.

2 tbs sesame oil
2 eschalots, thinly sliced
4cm piece (20g) ginger, thinly sliced
15cm piece lemongrass, white part only, halved lengthwise, bruised
8 cups (2L) Massel Chicken Style Liquid Stock
300g medium green king prawns, peeled (tails intact), deveined
180g dried soba noodles
2 tbs soy sauce
1 tbs mirin
1 tbs rice vinegar
1 tsp sesame seeds
1 long red chilli, thinly sliced
2 long green shallots, thinly sliced

Method

1.

Heat sesame oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the eschalots and ginger and cook, stirring, for 3-4 minutes until eschalots have softened. Add lemongrass and chicken stock and bring to the boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 35-40 minutes until infused.
2.

Add the prawns and cook for 2-3 minutes, then add the noodles, stirring frequently. Add the soy, mirin and vinegar. Divide soup among bowls and scatter with sesame seeds, chilli and long green shallot to serve.
