Julie’s second dish is a Taiwanese Taro Noodle Soup. I have never had a noodle soup with Taro. It is something new that I learnt here. The taro gives the noodle soup added textures, soft and creamy.
This is an easy meal to prepare at home. Julie added some fish balls in her noodle soup. You may substitute the fish balls with other meatballs like beef, chicken, squid, pork, etc.
Ingredients
- 1 large piece of Taro, peeled and cut to bite-size
- 1 packet of vermicelli noodle
- 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
- fish balls
- lettuce, thinly sliced
- a can chicken stock
Instructions
Soak the vermicelli in boiling water to soften it.
Julie, a big thank you for sharing.
What an interesting dish. In Taiwan, my grandmother used to fry the taro before adding it into soup. I want to taste the two to compare techniques.
