Ingredients

4 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
2 tbsp white miso paste
1 inch fresh ginger, grated
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 lb cod fillets, cut into 1-inch pieces
2 heads bok choy, chopped
1 tbsp soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
Green onions, sliced (for garnish)

Instructions

In a medium pot, combine vegetable broth, miso paste, grated ginger, and minced garlic. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat, stirring until the miso is fully dissolved.
Carefully add the cod pieces to the simmering broth. Cook for 3-5 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Stir in the chopped bok choy and soy sauce. Continue to simmer for another 2-3 minutes, just until the bok choy is tender-crisp.
Ladle the hot soup into bowls. Garnish with fresh sliced green onions before serving.

Tips

For extra spice, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the broth for a subtle kick.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days; reheat gently to prevent overcooking the cod.
