Ingredients

Makes 2 servings

  • 3 cups dashi or vegetable stock
  • 3 tbsp white miso paste
  • 7 oz silken tofu, cubed
  • 2 cups baby bok choy, halved
  • 2 eggs, soft-boiled and halved
  • 2 scallions, sliced
  • 1 tsp toasted sesame oil

Method

  1. 1Bring the stock to a bare simmer — miso turns grainy if it boils.
  2. 2Add the bok choy and cook for 2 minutes, then add the tofu and warm through.
  3. 3Take the pot off the heat. Ladle a little stock into a bowl, whisk the miso into it until smooth, then stir it back into the pot.
  4. 4Divide between bowls and top with the eggs, scallions and sesame oil.
