Root vegetable ramen with potato noodles
This vegetable ramen recipe combines British root veg with Asian aromatics to create a vegetarian soup perfect for the colder months. The noodles are replaced by spiralized potatoes – making the dish gluten-free – and all the vegetables can be swapped out for whatever you've got to use up in your fridge.
