The Vermicelli Soup is not really a soup but it’s like vermicelli in thick broth. This is great by itself as a vegetarian dish or you may add some meat in it to make it a dish in one pot.
This vermicelli dish reminded me of the dish my mom used to make for me when I’m sick. The texture of this dish is like ‘mien sien’.
If you like it to be more soupy, add more chicken broth and water. The vermicelli is like a sponge and by the time we served it, there is no more broth visible.

Sounds good and easy! As long as I can find enoki mushrooms and the right kind of noodles! What kind of meat would you add and when? I’m guessing in the beginning… maybe some thinly sliced meat?
That looks delicious! I just want to say that I have been reading and loving all of Ben’s travel posts and your recipe posts, though I haven’t been commenting. Keep up the good work, you two are very appreciated.
Hi RobynT, you are right on the meat, it should be thinly sliced, can be chicken or pork and added at the beginning to make sure that the meat is cooked thoroughly.
Yummy!!! Never got chance to have it since stepped out from Malaysia…Thanks for the recipe Suanne…I should have a try on it too…Grateful !
What a simple and delicious recipe! I made some substitutions because I am vegetarian and didn’t have shitake or oyster sauce and used oyster mushrooms, black bean sauce and veggie broth and it still tasted amazing! Thanks 🙂
