- Next add the coconut milk, vegetable broth, tamari sauce and sugar; bring everything to the boil, then reduce the heat and let the soup simmer for about 15 minutes or so.
- Whilst the soup simmers away, in a separate pot heat the noodles following the package instructions.

- Next, in a frying pan, heat some oil and pan fry the shiitake mushrooms with a pinch of salt and pepper. Once done, set them aside.
- Prepare the other 'final touch' ingredients for when the soup is ready to be served.
