Chicken Mami - cooking recipe

Ingredients

6 garlic cloves, crushed
1/2 lb chinese-style thick wheat noodles (or substitute for 1/4 lb. wide egg noodles)
1 cup diced cooked chicken
1 hard-boiled egg, chopped
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1/4 cup green onion, finely chopped
5 cups chicken broth
1 tablespoon fish sauce
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Preparation

Heat the oil in a skillet and fry the crushed garlic until it is golden brown.
Drain on paper towels, mince into fine pieces and set aside.
Put the Chinese-style noodles (mami) in warm salted water to separate them. If using dried egg noodles, cook in salted, boiling water until the noodles are just tender.
In a saucepan, bring the chicken broth to a boil. Stir in the fish sauce, then add salt and pepper.
Pour the broth into each bowl and garnish with fried garlic.
