Ingredients

  • 1/2 lb tang hoon (glass/mung bean noodles), soaked in hot water to soften

  • 4 cups chicken and ikan bilis (dried anchovy) stock

  • 4 shallots, thinly sliced

  • 5–6 garlic cloves, minced

  • 1 egg per person

  • 1–2 cups buckwheat microgreens

  • Shredded cooked chicken (optional)

  • Coconut oil, for frying

  • White pepper, salt, and soy sauce, to taste

Instructions

  • 1

    Heat coconut oil in a pot over medium-high. Fry shallots and garlic until fragrant and golden.

  • 2

    Pour in stock and bring to a boil.

  • 3

    Add softened tang hoon noodles to the boiling broth.

  • 4

    Crack eggs directly into the simmering broth; let cook gently for 3–4 minutes without stirring.

  • 5

    Season with salt, white pepper, and soy sauce.

  • 6

    Turn off heat. Ladle into bowls and stir in buckwheat microgreens and shredded chicken (if using) at the table — residual heat gently wilts them.

  • 7

    Serve immediately.
