Begin by bringing 8 cups of chicken broth to a slow boil. It's best to use homemade broth if possible because it adds such a rich, wholesome flavor. Once the broth is boiling, throw in the ground ginger, minced garlic, fish sauce, brown sugar, red curry paste, and coconut milk. Salt to taste and reduce to a simmer. 8- 10 cups chicken broth, 1 Tbsp ground Ginger, 4 Tbsp Thai Red Curry Paste, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 4 cloves fresh garlic, 1 Tbsp Fish Sauce, 2 cans Coconut milk
While the broth simmers on low, begin preparing the toppings. Wash and chop the Bok choy, both stem and leaf. Slice up the limes, chop the chicken if you haven't already, and slice the red onion into thin slices. Roughly chop a bunch of cilantro. Allow the broth to continue simmering for 40 minutes.

While the broth is simmering, cook the noodles in a separate pot according to the package directions. Poach or soft fry the eggs sunny side up, and add the chopped Bok Choy to the broth. Allow the Bok choy to cook and soften for about 5 minutes.

Once the Bok choy has wilted, divide the noodles among the bowls and add a few pieces of cooked chicken. Then, ladle in the broth, making sure to include some softened Bok choy in each bowl. Add in 1/2 - 1 Tbsp of soy sauce to each bowl. Then, top with desired toppings: a few thinly sliced red onion, some fresh cilantro, a slice of lime and a poached egg are our favorites.
