When pulled out thin rice noodle, a bowl, and a couple of chopstick over the kitchen counter, I knew exactly what he wanted.
In our home, noodle in sipping hot broth with meat and vegetable dunked in the sizzling, savoury lake is a common thing. It is really simple to make especially if you always have homemade chicken stock in the fridge like I do.
Noodle in clear broth is so warm and welcoming. The soft noodle soaked in flavourful stock with the juicy and melting meat balls floating on top is really good with kids. It was how my mom used to feed me, and now it is how I’ve cherish it with my son.

It was difficult to get the shost of this hot noodle as Yaseen running behind me with the chopstick. He couldn’t wait to dig in, slurp on the smooth noodle, and bite those juicy meatballs. It was hot but he knew his way around a bowl of noodle. A quick moment later…. It was all gone, not even a drop of broth left behind.
Have a beautiful day,
