* Making Moc Vemicelli Soup
- Use spoon to scoop each grinded pork and roll to circle shape (you can add a little salt + sugar and sliced spring onion before making this step). Then add a little sliced black fugus around it. Next, put it into hot water, cook about 5 minutes and put it out immediately. When serving, you add some grinded pork rolls on the face of vermicelli.
- If you love fried food, instead of boiling it, you can fry grinded pork rolls. Or you can choose both ways to making this step.
- Making Broth: Boil 2,5 liter cold water + a little salt + sugar + sliced white onion. Wait till the water get hot, add pork chop + chicken into pot with medium heat. Like many other Vietnamaese Food recipes, with this step, do not cover the pot, the broth will turn blur and look not delicious.
- Cook about 45 – 60 minutes and put chicken and pork chop out of broth. Tastebroth again to suit with your flavor.
- From my experiences, if you want to keep the chciken meat color still white, after put it out of pot, put it immediately into cold water about 3 minute. And then you tear chicken meat to small pieces.
