Spicy Pork Noodle Soup
  1. Heat oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat.

  2. Add garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until the slices become nicely toasted and golden brown, 2–3 minutes. Transfer garlic to a small bowl and set aside.

  3. Add pork to the pot, and season with salt and pepper. Cook, breaking up large pieces, until the pork is well browned and in small bite-size pieces, 8-10 minutes. Add red pepper flakes.

  4. Add soy sauce, cilantro stems and 6 cups of water. Bring to a simmer and cook for about 5 to 8 minutes or so, until the pork is very tender and the broth tastes good. Season with salt, pepper, red-pepper flakes and soy sauce, if desired.

  5. Add pea leaves and all of the ginger. Stir to wilt the leaves and soften the onion, and season with fish sauce if you like.

  6. To serve, ladle soup over noodles and top with onion, cilantro and the toasted garlic chips.
