Turkey-Noodle Soup With Ginger and Chillies

This fragrant turkey noodle soup with ginger and chillies is a vibrant, high-protein dish that breathes new life into cooked poultry. Inspired by the clean, aromatic flavours of Southeast Asian cuisine, the broth is infused with fresh ginger and shallots, providing a warming base that is both light and deeply satisfying. It is an excellent choice for a nutritious midweek meal, especially when you are looking for something restorative that does not compromise on punchy, zesty flavour.

Perfect for a healthy lunch or a simple supper, this versatile recipe allows you to customise the heat and freshness at the table. Adding crunchy bean sprouts, cooling mint, and a squeeze of zingy lime creates a wonderful contrast against the tender turkey and soft rice noodles. It is an ideal way to use up leftover roast turkey while maintaining a focus on lean protein and fresh, whole ingredients.

Ladle soup into bowls. Serve, allowing diners to top each serving with bean sprouts, mint leaves, chillies, and lime wedges to squeeze over.

Break up the carcass so that it its into a 6-quart or larger pot. Add 2.8L water and 1 each coarsely chopped onion, carrot, and celery stalk. Bring to boil, skimming off any foam. Add 6 parsley sprigs, 1/2 teaspoons dried thyme, and 1/4 teaspoons whole peppercorns. Simmer 2 to 3 hours. Strain, then skim off any fat from surface of the broth.
