This is a delightful and simple soup that takes less than 5 minutes to cook if you have the soup stock ready or made in advance. I have some left-over ikan bilis stock and decided to whip up a quick soup for dinner. This soup is versatile and can be further enhanced by adding fish balls or meat to make a nutritious wholesome dish.
Ingredients
1 packet glass noodles, pre-soaked to soften
Ikan bilis stock (2 bowls water cooked with half bowl ikan bilis)
Choy sum, or vegetable of your choice
1 egg, beaten
Salt and pepper to taste
Method
To make the soup stock, heat 1 tbsp oil in a pot and stir-fry half bowl of ikan bilis for about 30 seconds til brown and fragrant. Add two bowls of water, bring it to boil and simmer soup for 30 minutes. Discard ikan bilis and stock is ready for use.
Bring soup to boil, add glass noodles and vegetable. Lower heat and slowly pour the beaten egg through a fork into the soup. Once the egg sets, stir gently. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Dish and serve immediately.
