Pork & Bok Choy Udon Soup

15 min1 servings

While traveling in Thailand, my husband sampled a local version of this tasty soup from street vendors. We have tried many variations, and this comes the closest to his recollection. We double the recipe so we have lots of leftovers. —Donna Noecker, Plano, Texas

6 ounces dried Japanese udon noodles or fettuccine

1 small bunch bok choy, coarsely chopped

4 teaspoons minced fresh gingerroot
