- ¾ cup macaroni uncooked
- ½ cup carrots, peas, corn I used frozen but you can use fresh◡̈
- 3 cups chicken broth
- 1½ cup water
- 1 teaspoon soy sauce adjust to your taste
- ½ teaspoon salt adjust to your taste
- ½ teaspoon chicken bouillon adjust to your taste
toppings
- ½ tablespoon corn oil to fry egg & spam
- 2 fried eggs
- ½ can spam or ham
- sliced green onion
- ¼ teaspoon sesame oil optional
Boil macaroni pasta according to package directions until al dente. Strain and set pasta aside.
Make the toppings by frying spam in ½ tbs oil. Then, using the same pan, fry an egg on medium heat. Add 1 teaspoon of water and cover for 1 minute until the egg white is cooked. Set spam and eggs aside.
To make the soup, add chicken broth and water in a pot. x Then, add carrots, peas, and corn. Boil on medium. Once the broth starts boiling, add cooked macaroni pasta.
Then add seasoning: 1 teaspoon soy sauce, ½ teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon chicken bouillon. Adjust according to your taste (considering that your chicken broth may be saltier or less salty than mine). Remember to not make the broth too salty because the spam is pretty salty and savory when added to the soup! Boil for 1 minute.
Serve soup with spam and sunny side egg. Garnish with green onions and sesame oil if you like. Hope you enjoy!
