Instructions

1
Simmer the stock with the garlic and ginger for 15 minutes to build a fragrant base, then season with the fish sauce and salt.
2
Cook the noodles separately so the broth stays clean, and divide them between deep bowls.
3
Cook the cabbage gently in the simmering broth until just done, then lift out and slice or portion.
4
Ladle the piping-hot broth over the noodles and arrange the cabbage on top.
5
Finish with mint leaves, spring onions and a wedge of lime on the side.

Chef's tip

Taste and adjust the salt at the end; sauces concentrate as they reduce.
