Fish Ball Noodle Soup

Ingredients
few pieces of ikan bilis
4-5 fish balls
choice of noodles (I use udon)
few pieces of lettuce
1 tsp of light soya sauce
white pepper powder to taste
ikan bilis cube (optional)
fried shallots
chilli padi
chopped spring onions

Directions
  • boil ikan bilis in about 3 cups of water for 10-15 minutes to make ikan bilis stock
  • remove ikan bilis or just leave it if you like
  • add in fish balls and noodles and let it simmer
  • add soya sauce and pepper to taste
  • lastly put in lettuce and remove from stove
  • pour in bowl and top it with chilli padi, fried shallots and spring onions

Foodnote
This is a very simple and easy recipe for when you want something simple and fast. Better than instant noodle and healthier too. The chilli padi, light soya sauce and pepper can be added afterwards too... adjusting to taste.
