Easy Misua Patola Soup
The Misua Patola Soup recipe is simple but very hearty. It can be eaten by itself or can be eaten over steaming white rice.
Different types of misua
There are different types of misua in the grocery, and much as i wanted to buy the boxed ones which has bigger noodles, they ran out of stock the day i did my food shopping.
I grew up eating this dish with the patola sliced into round shape. I modified the slice of the patola in my version though so that it will be easier for my baby and the toddler to grab the patola strips. This also makes it safer for them to eat. Yes you read it right, they grab it because sometimes they become impatient about using their utensils when they are eating their favorite misua.

Ingredients for the easy misua patola soup recipe
- 1 medium onions chopped
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1 medium sized Patola, sliced
- 200 grams Ground Meat (beef, chicken or pork, depending on your preference)
- 2 -3 Cups Chicken Stock or Plain Water
- Misua
- Patis
- Ground Pepper
Cooking Procedure:
1. Saute onions and garlic.
2. Add lean ground pork (about 200-250 grams) – i usually pre-boil my ground pork, but it is up to you if you want to saute it thawed or pre-boiled.
3. Add in the patola and then about three cups of chicken stock or plain filtered water. Chicken stock can be easily made by boiling chicken bones along with onions, garlic, and cabbage or any extra veggie you have at home.
4. Cook for about 5-10 minutes.
5. Add in the misua and let cook for another three minutes.
6. Just eyeball the amount of water since misua may absorb much and you may have to add more.
7. Once the misua is cooked, YOU CAN NOW SEPARATE A PORTION FOR YOUR BABY AND TODDLER SO THAT THEY CAN HAVE IT UNSEASONED.
8. You can now season the misua-patola for adult consumption. You can season it with either patis or salt, and the some pepper.
