Average Price Per Serving:
SGD $2.50 - $4



Description:
Mee Soto & Soto Ayam essentially refers to the same Malay dish, which is a chicken soup spiced with powdered turmeric or powdered coriander.


If yellow egg noodles are added, then the dish is called Mee Soto. However, if boiled compressed rice cakes (Ketupat) are added, then the dish is called Soto Ayam.

The spice mix that goes into Mee Soto & Soto Ayam is made with garlic, ginger, onions, lemon grass, cloves, cardamom, star anise, salt, pepper and powdered turmeric / powdered coriander.

Meanwhile, a soup broth is created using chicken bones, chicken stock, water and chicken meat. The broth is then filtered, and the spice mix added to get the final Mee Soto & Soto Ayam soup.

Mee Soto & Soto Ayam is garnished with shredded chicken meat, cilantro, bean sprouts, spring onions, fried shallots and chili.

Some hawkers also include a hard boiled egg, dark soy sauce, vinegar or fried potato patty (Begedil).

Mee Soto & Soto Ayam should have a light, clear soup, that is flavourful. It shouldn't be overly salty. The chicken should be tender, with the bean sprouts lending a crunchy texture to the dish.
