Rainy Saturday's brunch — mee sua with BB at home!
Rainy Saturday home brunch with BB — two bowls of mee sua (thin wheat noodles) in clear soup with hard-boiled eggs and greens, plus a plate of fried chicken wings on the side.
Rainy Saturday at home with BB — cooked up a simple mee sua brunch to match the cooled-down weather. 😋
What was on the table:
- Two metal mess tins of mee sua (thin wheat noodles) soup — clean clear broth, with the thin noodles cooked just past al dente.
- Each bowl topped with a hard-boiled egg (one whole, one halved), fresh bok choy / kang kong, scallion stems, and a generous scatter of fried shallots for the aromatic hit.
- A side metal tin of fried chicken wings — golden battered, drumlets and middle joints, crispy from a hot pan.
Mee sua is the kind of dish that’s all about the broth quality — and home-cooked broth with proper care gives store-bought a run for its money. Fried chicken on the side balanced the lightness.
Total: home cost, no receipt 😅 — but pantry-staple territory.
Overall: 4.2 / 5. Comfort food at its most domestic. Mee sua was cooked just right, fried chicken stayed crispy on the side. The kind of brunch that makes a rainy weekend perfect. 😍👍🏼
