Put a small pan with water on the stove and bring to boil
Add the black bean noodles and cook for three minutes. Once cooked, remove and drain before setting aside
In the same pan with boiling water, add the eggs and cook for exactly six minutes for a runny yolk. Take them out and place in the bowl with iced water
Set a wok, or a medium pot, on the stove and heat with 1 tbsp vegetable oil
Add the cubed tofu, sear to your liking and remove
In the same pan, add the shiitake mushrooms and sauté for five to six minutes, stirring occasionally
Once the mushrooms have softened, add the grated ginger and stir fry for 30 seconds to release the aroma. Add the chilli flakes (if using), soy sauce and a pinch of sugar, stir quickly to dissolve and pour the broth over. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer for nine minutes
Add the quartered bok choy, let it simmer for another minute and take off the heat. Set aside and let it cool slightly
In a small bowl add the miso paste, take a small ladle of the broth and mix to loosen it. Return the mixture of broth and miso to the pot and gently stir to combine and dissolve
Plate time: divide the noodles between two shallow bowls. Ladle the broth over and add two pieces of bok choy in each, along with the carrots and an egg each
Sprinkle the finely cut green onions and sesame seeds on top. Add several seaweed thins to the side of each bowl, drizzle the bowl with chilli oil, cut the egg in half and enjoy immediately
