PORK & BOK CHOY UDON SOUP

Pork & Bok Choy Udon Soup image

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
