Saimin (Noodle Soup)

(pronounced "SI-mean" or "SI-min")

Skinny-thin egg noodles in a warm broth with vegetables



On the Aloha Restaurant web site they show their menu with Spam Saimin (soup) as one of their choices. You could use any 鈥楥hinese-Style鈥?soup recipe and add Spam. I鈥檓 sure there are several ways to make it, but here is one recipe. --



SPAM Saimin

Ingredients:

Ready to eat saimin/instant saimin

SPAM (fried or out of the can) sliced into desired sized strips

Chopped green onion, kamaboko (Japanese Fish Cake) sliced into strips, Fried egg sliced into strips

Flavorings such as goma (sesame) oil, chili oil, tabasco, shoyu (soy sauce), mirin, etc



Prepare saimin as indicated

While preparing saimin, fry SPAM if you want to, otherwise out of the can is fine, and slice into desired sized strips

Also prepare other desired ingredients for the saimin, such as chopped green onion, kamaboko slices, goma oil or other flavorings, etc

Add all ingredients to prepared saimin. If desired, add hot sauce or other last minute "touches", eat hot and enjoy.

Ingredients

You can prep the first 3 steps of the dish hours ahead. The final cooking will only take a couple of minutes.



8 ounces dried Chinese egg noodles

1 tablespoon roasted sesame oil

1 to 2 cups broccoli flowerets

4 cups lower-sodium chicken broth

3 slices fresh ginger

8 ounces extra-firm tofu, well-drained and patted dry

2 tablespoons vegetable cooking oil, divided

2 large eggs, lightly beaten and seasoned with salt and pepper

1 teaspoon soy sauce

1/4 teaspoon salt

Pepper

1/4 pound fresh snow peas, stringed

1 1/2 cups sliced bok choy or Napa cabbage

6 ounces cooked chicken or pork, chopped or shredded

1 cup fresh bean sprouts

2 green onions, thinly sliced on the bias

Roasted sesame oil









Instructions

1. Cook noodles following package directions. Drain well, rinse in cold water, and combine with sesame oil in a large bowl.

2. Cook broccoli in 2 to 3 cups boiling water 2 to 3 minutes or until crisp-tender. Drain and rinse in cold water. Drain again and set aside.

3. Heat broth and ginger in a large saucepan over low heat about 30 minutes; do not allow it to boil. Remove ginger.

4. Cut tofu into 1/2-inch-thick squares and blot well with paper towels. Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. When hot, add tofu and cook on both sides 5 to 6 minutes or until golden brown. Set aside on paper towels. Add remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil to pan; when hot, add egg and rotate pan to film the bottom with a thin layer of egg. When egg has set on the bottom, carefully flip it over. Slide egg crepe onto a plate and cool. Roll up to form a tight cylinder and cut crosswise into thin strips.

5. When ready to serve, season broth with soy sauce, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat; add snow peas and cabbage. Cook 1 minute. Add noodles, broccoli, pork or chicken, tofu, egg strips and bean sprouts; cook 30 seconds longer. Divide into bowls, scatter green onions on top and drizzle with seame oil. Serve immediately. Serves 4.

Noodles. The best mainland noodle choices are fresh chow mein noodles (refrigerated) or dried ramen noodles, available in grocery stores in the soup section. Organic dried udon or soba (Hakubaku brand), made without egg, come in packages of three 3.1-ounce bundles. You can also use spaghettini or thin Chinese egg noodles (Rose Brand), also available dried in many supermarkets. Yakisoba, pre-cooked noodles, are often stocked on refrigerated produce shelves. A 7.7-ounce package, enough for 2 to 3 servings, is a common size.



Vegetable suggestions. Spinach, chard, asparagus, snow peas, bean sprouts, zucchini slices or cubes, small broccoli florets, Chinese cabbage (Napa or bok choy), green beans, dried or fresh shiitake mushrooms, green onion, carrots, pea shoots, bell pepper, or strips of hot chili.



Meat suggestions. Chinese (or other) barbecued pork or chicken, thin-sliced raw beef tenderloin (add to hot soup at last minute), roast chicken strips, Spam strips.



Fish and seafood suggestions. Chinese fish cake slices, cooked shelled shrimp, small chunks of fresh salmon, bay or sea scallops.



Tofu: Cubes of fresh or baked tofu, or cubes of fried.
