Pumpkin Miso Noodles
Nutritious and delicious.  Serves 4

~~~ Ingredients ~~~
2 cups prepared vermicelli noodles
1.5 litres of water
2 tbs ginger -fresh or galangal, finely grated
3 cups cubed pumpkin
4 tbls miso paste
3 large spring onions, finely sliced
3 cups Asian greens (sweet potato leaves, bok choy, pak choy, tatsoi), roughly chopped
2 tbls toasted sesame oil
¼ cup tamari / soy sauce
1 tbls sesame seeds
½ tsp good salt

~~~ Directions ~~~
Cover the vermicelli with boiling water in heat proof bowl.  Check after 5 minutes.  Noodles need to be al dente.  Rinse with cold water and set aside.

Place the water and ginger/galangal in a large saucepan and bring to the boil.  Add the pumpkin and simmer until al dente.  Add the remaining ingredients except the noodles and reduce to low heat.  Be careful not to boil miso and kill off the beneficial enzymes.
Once the greens are wilted add the noodles to warm through.  Serve immediately.
