ground pork

🥗Healthier: ground turkey

💰Cheaper: ground chicken

Ground turkey is leaner, while ground chicken is often less expensive.

fried shallots

🥗Healthier: crispy onions

💰Cheaper: caramelized onions

Crispy onions provide a similar crunch with less oil.

soy sauce

🥗Healthier: low-sodium soy sauce

💰Cheaper: tamari

Low-sodium soy sauce reduces salt intake, while tamari is often cheaper.

wheat noodles

🥗Healthier: whole wheat noodles

💰Cheaper: rice noodles

Whole wheat noodles add fiber, while rice noodles are gluten-free.

Boil water in a large pot.

Add wheat noodles and cook until tender, about 5-7 minutes.

Drain noodles and rinse under cold water to stop cooking.

In a skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium heat until shimmering.

Add minced garlic and ginger, sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Stir in ground pork and cook until browned, about 5 minutes.

Add chili paste and soy sauce, mixing well to combine.

In a separate pot, poach eggs until whites are set but yolks remain runny, about 3-4 minutes.

Toss cooked noodles with the pork mixture in the skillet.

Serve noodles topped with poached egg, fried shallots, bok choy, and scallions.
