    Ingredients

    You need just four ingredients for this simple noodle recipe: noodles, lard, greens of your choice and green onions. Except lard, you can easily find other ingredients in your local grocery store. So I've listed a few substitutions for lard.

    You’ll need:

    • 60 g dry thin noodles
    • A handful of leafy vegetables e.g. bok choy
    • 1 small spoon of lard
    • 1 green onion, finely chopped
    • Light soy sauce to taste
    • A pinch of salt

    Notes and Variations

    • Vegetable: I used bok choy. You can substitute with spinach, Chinese napa cabbage, or Yu Choy.
    • Noodle: I used dry thin egg noodles. Use the noodles you have at hands. However, I find Italian style noodle like spaghetti doesn't work well for this recipe.
    • Lard substitute: You don't have to use lard for this recipe. I tried once to substitute lard with sesame oil, it worked perfectly. You can also use unsalted butter, shortening, coconut oil, vegetable oil, or olive oil as suggested by this post.

    Step-by-step Instructions

    Take a serving bowl, add finely chopped green onion and lard.

    Bring a pot of water to a boil, cook the noodles. When it is 1 minute away from done, blanch the bok choy

    Once noodles are cooked, pour some noodle boiling water to the bowl, transfer the noodles and blanched vegetables to the bowl. Add salt and/or soy sauce to taste. Mix well. Enjoy!
