What’s cooking foodies, hivers? I hope your tummies are all full and happy. 😋
Today, I am sharing with you a recipe for a simple yet balanced dish that will surely make you want to sit down and enjoy a delectable meal. Let’s call this sopas or soup in English. I’d say this is more than just soup – it’s a colorful, hearty bowl full of wholesome goodness.
This is best eaten on a rainy day when it’s cold and windy, and all you want to do is enjoy a warm meal in the cozy comfort of your home.
What we need (as shown in the photo below):
Elbow macaroni (we opted for half a kilo)
Evaporated milk (just a can)
Veggies (carrots, cabbage)
Meat (shredded chicken breast, hotdogs)
Butter, onion, garlic
How to cook it?
- Prepare a large pot. In it, melt butter over medium heat.
- Add sliced garlic and onion. Saute until fragrant and light brown.
- Add elbow macaroni (You can either cook the macaroni in a separate pot beforehand or add it uncooked at the beginning)
- Add shredded chicken (we cooked this in a separate pot beforehand and then shredded it)
- Add hotdogs
- Add carrots (Mix, mix, mix!)
- Add water (Make sure there is enough water to cook the macaroni). Wait for it to boil.
- Pour in evaporated milk (Make sure the macaroni is already cooked). Mix well. Do not boil to avoid curdling.)
- Add salt and pepper to your liking (Optional: chicken broth)
- Add cabbage. Wait for a minute until it's soaked and soft.
- Best to serve it hot.
You can never go wrong with this recipe. It’s so easy to prepare and the taste is really good.
