Homemade Egg Noodle Soup

Finally unpacked my wedding anniversary cum valentine's pressie from hubby. It arrives late afternoon on the day before our shipment arrives, so I wasn't too keen to get it unpack coz the whole place is so messy and not that I have the time to do anything with it yet.

And, the first thing I made was egg noodle. The girl loves noodle and I'm sort of worried that the dried noodle is not that healthy after all compared to the one mommy made with some love of course.. hehehe... :p

The noodle was served with honey soy pan fried pork (the pork was sliced, marinated with soy sauce and honey only, then pan fried with some olive oil).

After searching and searching, I finally settled for the recipe from http://chefwo.com/update-version-egg-noodle-recipe/ with some modifications to the method since I'm not using hand to do this.

Ingredients

• 500gm all purpose flour
• 1 egg yolk
• 1 3/4 cup of cold water
• 1 1/4 tsp of salt

Method

1. Put in all the dry ingredients in the big bowl of the magi mix and then the egg and cold water.
2. Blend with the dough mixer for about 5mins.
3. Leave it to set for an hour while I go prepare the pork to marinade, cut the broccoli and setup the noodle maker (also a new toy.. kekeke)
4. Take it out and knead and use the noodle maker to cut it as per instruction. Remember to keep dusting with flour. I used like almost another cup of flour for it.
5. Time to test your noodle perfection. Hold one strand and pull, you should be able to pull it very long! Isn’t it great!
6. Since I don't have a noodle dryer/rack and lack of time, what I did was laid it on the top of a big container straight to dry.
7. While drying, pan fried the pork, boil the soup, add in the broccoli and then just dump all the noodle in it.
8. Served... slurp slurp..

Next time, I'm gonna try putting in more eggs, less water.
