This is similar to chicken noodle soup but with vermicelli (or bihon or glass or cellophane) noodles. Sotanghon, as we call it, is delicious when served hot 😋 Serve immediately, before the noodles absorb all the soup! 😆
Sans: Atsuete (Annatto) powder

Steps

1

Saute the garlic and onions in oil.
2

Add the chicken, frozen is okay. Run it through the tap first before adding to the pot.
3

Add a few tablespoons water, a good amount of salt and cover. Turn chicken, to cook on all sides, until it changes color.
4

Add the chicken broth or water+broth cube. You can already add the hard vegetables. I added the drumstick seeds and green beans. Bring to a boil.
5

Add the fish sauce or patis. Add the rest of the vegetables and the noodles. The noodles should be pre-softened before adding here.
Bring to a boil, taste and adjust seasoning as desired.
6

Turn off heat and serve immediately. Garnish with toppings.
Note: the noodles may/will absorb most of the soup if not consumed right away. ☺️
