Pancit Special (Canton Style)

 

 

Ingredients:

2 tablespoons oil

1 small onion, chopped

2 tablespoons finely chopped garlic

250 grams chicken breast or thigh ( I used breast )

1 medium carrot, peeled and sliced

150 grams cabbage

baguio beans ( this I just added because I don’t want it to go to waste )

3 hardboiled eggs

1 1/2 cups water

1 chicken cube

250 grams canton noodles

soy sauce

butter

Note: some add squid balls, others also use beef, snow peas (but I used baguio beans as I had some left from a previous recipe..)

 

Boil chicken in water with a bit of soy sauce and pepper for about 10-15mins. Drain and set aside. Cut into cubes or slices. ( Set water aside, this can be added later on)

 

Boil 3-4 eggs. Then slice.

 

Heat oil in a wok and saute onion until transparent, add garlic and saute until fragrant. Add chicken and cook until brown.

Add carrots, cook for 5 mins. Add cabbage and baguio beans. Stir-fry mixing well. Pour water and add chicken cubes. (I also added the stock from boiling the chicken).  Simmer over medium heat for about a minute, then add noodles and soy sauce to taste.

Simmer until almost all the liquid is absorbed and canton noodles are tender ( 5 – 10 mins ).  Stir in butter and mix to coat noodles.

Garnish with sliced boiled eggs if desired :)
