4 cups / 1 litre chicken stock/broth (, low-sodium)
2/3 cup cabbage kimchi ((Note 1))
2 tbsp kimchi juice (, from kimchi tub (Note 1))
3 tbsp gochujang ((Note 2))
2 tbsp light soy sauce ((Note 3))
2 tsp fish sauce ((sub more soy))
1 tbsp Chinese cooking wine ((Shaoxing wine, Note 4))
2 slices ginger (, sliced 0.7cm / 1/3" thick (skin on))
1 large garlic clove (, smashed (Note 5))
200 g / 7oz thin fresh egg noodles ((or 100g/3.5oz dried - Note 6))
4 stems choi sum (or other Asian greens, cut into 7cm / 2.5" lengths, stems separated from leafy part)

2 1/2 tsp sesame oil (, toasted (Note 8))
1/4 cup finely sliced green onions ((1 stem))

Steps

Broth - Place all broth ingredients in a saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, then reduce heat so it’s simmering gently. Simmer 10 minutes without a lid.
Cook vegetables - Add choi sum stems and carrot to the broth. Simmer for 2 minutes. Add choi sum leaves and simmer for another minute. Stir in sesame oil just before serving.
Noodles - Meanwhile, cook egg noodles in boiling water per packet directions. Drain, give the noodles a quick rinse under tap water. Shake off excess water well.
Assemble - Divide noodles between bowls. Top with the vegetables. Pick the garlic and ginger out of the broth, then broth pour over the noodles. Sprinkle with green onions and serve!
