Ingredients

1.10 lb udon noodles frozen kind
12 fish balls
8 baby bok choy sliced lengthwise, rinsed, drained
½ cup soybean sprouts or mung bean sprouts, rinsed, drained
5.29 oz seafood mushrooms
1 green onion finely chopped for garnish

Soup Base

2 cups chicken broth low-sodium
2 cups water room temperature
½ tablespoon regular soy sauce or light soy sauce
2 tablespoon oyster sauce
1 teaspoon mirin
½ teaspoon sesame oil toasted kind
1 garlic clove minced
1 green onion finely chopped

Instructions

Trim off the ends of the mushrooms, rinse, and drain well. Separate into small bunches and set aside.
Bring a medium pot of water to a boil over medium-high heat. Blanch the frozen udon just until loosened, about 30 seconds. Drain well, shake off excess water, and divide between two large serving bowls.
Empty the pot, add all the soup base ingredients, and stir to combine. Cover and bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
Add the fish balls to the broth. Cover, reduce to medium heat, and simmer for 6-7 minutes, or until the fish balls are heated through and float to the surface. Remove with a slotted spoon and divide between the bowls.
Add the bok choy and seafood mushrooms to the broth and cook for 1-2 minutes, until tender-crisp. Remove with a slotted spoon and divide between the bowls. Add the bean sprouts and blanch for 30 seconds, then remove and divide between the bowls.
Ladle the hot broth into each bowl. Garnish with green onions and add more oyster sauce to taste, if desired. Serve immediately.
