The thing about this recie is that it can be pared down to stirfried cabbage, carrot, celery and onion, add water and miso later and it is just as delicious. And serve with just rice. The ume or brown rice vinegar splashed onto the rice with a little or no salt, crushed red pepper is very good; you can also add almonds or walnuts.

Here is a delicious miso soup recipe with easy to find simple
ingredients - works every time:

soak shittake mushoom (4-6 small dried caps) and seaweed (kombu or
other) in bowl with hot water
chef's wok over gas flame - preheat
add olive oil
add, in this order, 30 seconds to one minute between:
bias cut sliced carrot
hot red chili peppers, broken into pieces
onion cut in chunks, separated
celery stalks cut on the bias
cabbage wedge cut into chunks, separated
any wild greens you might have in the garden
don't overcook, stop before vegetables get limp and when greens are
bright green
add soaked seaweed& shitttake& soaking liquid
let cool until very warm then add large tablespoon of hatcho miso&
dissolve it into the liquid (hatcho has the most probiotics, the least
water, is least expensive and has plenty of flavor - next in line is
barley miso)
don't add any other ingredients, other oils, mirin, vinegar or sauces or
salt (the miso has plenty)

serve with hot boiled rice (add some hot crushed red pepper, ume or
brown rice vinegar as condiments), stir fried little dried fish
(sardines, from asian grocery), tempeh or tofu (cook with brown rice
vinegar, hot red pepper, a little salt, tamari soy sauce or fermented
black beans)
