Instructions
- Pour the chicken stock into a large saucepan, bring to the boil and then reduce to a simmer. Add the soy sauce and sake, and season. Mix well and reduce to a very low simmer.

- Divide the udon noodles and broth between four bowls, and add the meatballs, raw vegetables and eggs if using.
- Finally garnish with finely sliced spring onion and serve with Fused Cheeky Chilli soy sauce.
