  5. Add the pumpkin and cook, stirring regularly, for 1 min.
  6. Add the vegetable stock and Kara Classic UHT Coconut Milk and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook. Stirring occasionally, for 5 mins or until the pumpkin is almost tender.
  7. Trim and thickly slice the pak choy. Slice the corn kernels from the cob. Cut the tofu into cubes.
  8. Once the pumpkin is almost tender, add the pak choy, corn, tofu, white vinegar and fish sauce. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 mins or until the vegetables are tender.
  9. While the vegetables are cooking, put the hokkien noodles in a large heatproof bowl, cover generously with boiling water and soak for 3 mins, using a fork to gently separate the noodles after they start to soften.
  10. Drain and divide the noodles among bowls.
  11. Ladle over the soup and scatter with the fried shallots to serve.
