Begin by soaking the flat rice noodles in warm water for about 15 minutes, then drain and set aside.
Finely chop the garlic cloves and ginger. Slice the carrot into thin julienne strips, and chop the bok choy into bite-sized pieces. Slice the mushrooms and the spring onions and reserve some of the green tops for garnish.
In a large pot, heat the sesame oil over medium heat. Add the chopped garlic and ginger and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Pour in the vegetable broth and bring it to a low simmer. Add the soy sauce and stir to combine.
Add the mushrooms and carrots to the pot and simmer for about 5 minutes.
Next, add the bok choy and flat rice noodles to the soup. Simmer for an additional 5 minutes or until the vegetables are tender and the noodles are cooked through.
Season the soup with salt and pepper to taste. Adjust the soy sauce if needed to achieve the desired level of saltiness.
Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with sliced spring onions and chopped cilantro.
Serve with lime wedges on the side for a burst of fresh citrus flavor before eating.
