Ingredients

1 tbsp olive oil
2 cloves garlic chopped
1 small onion chopped
1/2 lb lean ground pork
1 tbsp fish sauce or 1 tsp salt
6 cups chicken broth (I used homemade broth, see notes below for recipe)
2 oz misua noodles or Japanese somen noodles
Salt and pepper to taste
Chopped green onion for garnish

Instructions

In a skillet, heat oil over medium high heat. Add garlic and onion; sauté for 2-3 minutes or until onion has softened.
Add ground pork and sauté for 3 minutes or until pork is no longer pink. Add fish sauce (or salt) and stir to combine.
Add broth and bring to a boil. Stir in misua and cook until soft, about 3 minutes.
Serve immediately, garnish with green onions.

Notes

For homemade broth: In a pot, combine 10 cups water, rotisserie chicken bones, chopped onions, salt, ground pepper and dried parsley. Add any vegetables (carrot, celery) you like; I added Chinese or napa cabbage. Boil and let simmer for 30 minutes. Drain and use as broth.
