This delicious soup is easy to make and is great if you are feeling sluggish or cold. You can add pretty much any type of winter greens, and the lemon, lime and chillies make it rich in vitamin C which boosts collagen synthesis in the skin. This recipe is enough for four hungry people – if only 2 of you are eating, it tastes even better the next day!. #vitaminc #collagensynthesis

- Prepare the noodles according to the package instructions and set aside.
- In a large saucepan, combine the stock, chilli, garlic, ginger, citrus zest and fish sauce, place over medium heat and simmer for five minutes.
- Add the chicken or prawns and coconut milk, simmer for five minutes, then add the vegetables and simmer until just tender.
- Add the noodles, lemon or lime juice, and coriander, and then take off the heat once the noodles are warmed through.
- Sprinkle with coriander and serve with lime wedges.
- If you decide to make the stock at home, it will take you 40 minutes longer. It is worth it!
