Mixed seafood and noodle broth recipe
In China soups are served in between courses or dishes. This is why they are made with a light stock, so they are more appropriate as a starter in a Western meal. You can part-prepare this soup ahead, then add the scallops, vegetables and noodles just before serving.

3 Halve the scallops if they are large. Add the mixed seafood to the boiling stock together with the Chinese cabbage, spring onions and bean sprouts. Bring back to the boil and cook for 1 minute or until the seafood is heated through.
