Method

  1. Put the stock in a large, lidded saucepan and bring to the boil. Add the ginger, garlic, halved chilli, 1 tbsp soy sauce and half the spring onions. Reduce to a gentle simmer over a medium heat, cover and leave to infuse.
  2. Meanwhile, heat a frying pan over a medium-high heat and add the squash with 3 tbsp water. Stir for 5-6 mins until defrosted and the water has evaporated. Stir in the sweetcorn and remaining 2 tbsp soy sauce. Stir-fry for 2-3 mins until the sweetcorn is hot and the soy sauce coats the veg. Remove from the heat.
  3. Bring a pan of water to the boil and lower in the eggs. Simmer for 6 mins (or 8 mins for hard-set yolks). Add the noodles for the last 2 mins until tender; drain both. Rinse the eggs under the tap for 30 secs to cool, then remove the shells and halve.
  4. Divide the noodles between 4 bowls and add the veg. Top each with 2 egg halves, then pour over the broth, removing the chilli. Top with the remaining spring onions, coriander leaves and the sliced chilli, if you like.
