La Paz-Style Batchoy Recipe

Little else comes close to a comforting broth such as batchoy. When it gets nippy, there’s no better companion than a steaming bowl of broth and silky noodles flavored with all-Pinoy flavors.

What is batchoy? 

Batchoy, for those unfamiliar with the dish, is a chicken and pork soup recipe that tops a thick noodle base with strips of pork, chicken, liver, fried crispy garlic, fried crispy onions, crushed chicharon, and if desired, a whole egg, so your soup is heartier and even more delicious. The hot soup is usually so hot that the raw egg cooks as it sits in the previously simmering broth.
