Procedures
Heat oil in a pan (or wok if possible). Sautee
garlic and onion slices until the onion is transparent. Add chicken and
pork. Cook until pork is brown. Add half of the chicken stock. Boil for
about three minutes. Add salt, soy sauce or patis to taste. Also sprinkle
some ground black pepper. Simmer for about another three minutes. Add
shrimps, mushrooms, carrots and other ingredients except the noodles
itself. Simmer for another 3 minutes or so (covered). Add the remaining
stock. Adjust the taste with salt, pepper, patis and soy sauce. Add the
noodles. Mix thoroughly until noodles are soft.
Garnish with sliced green onions and sliced lemon.
