This is a recipe for soba noodle soup that is simple, quick and utterly delicious. In this recipe I decided to use ingredients you probably already have at home, so you can skip the trip to the Asian shop. You can make this soup in just 30 minutes, from ordinary, easily available ingredients such as onion, garlic, button mushrooms

The soup is vegan, full of vegetables and aromatic spices that give it a Mediterranean touch, such as cumin and thyme. It also includes tomato purée and soy sauce, which add depth to the flavour. Soba noodles, the main star of this soup, are hugely popular for their texture and quick preparation. Adding broccoli, sweet potato, tofu and peanuts enriches the soup in both flavour and texture.

Don't forget, soba noodle soup is a great choice for anyone who wants something light but nourishing, whether for lunch or dinner. This recipe is perfect for experimenting with toppings, so I advise you to adjust the ingredients to your own taste. Enjoy cooking and bon appétit!
