I have always wanted to try cooking fresh noodles. So when I came across packages of fresh miki in the grocery store i knew it was time to try out an easy miki pancit guisado recipe.

But because life happens, i almost forgot to cook my miki. It has to be cooked within five days from purchase, and by the third day, some of my intended ingredients have been used for an impromptu out of the meal plan dish that i had to prepare a couple of days ago.

Nevertheless, this Miki guisado recipe ill be sharing with you still tastes great. In fact my kids so enjoyed it! So if you have shrimp and squidballs at home, go ahead and add it to the mix. If you want to use chicken instead of pork it is fine too. Just use the breast part, pre boil it and shred.

So without further chatter, here is Happypinaymommy’s —

Easy Miki Pancit Guisado Recipe

500 grams fresh miki

1 medium sized onions, chopped

2 cloves of garlic, chopped

2 pieces of chorizo, sliced

250 grams of menudo cut pork

Salt and pepper to taste

Oyster sauce (start with 2 tbsps)

2 tbsp of soy sauce (to add color to the dish)

1/2 tbsp chinese cooking wine

1 tbsp sesame oil

Carrots, sliced thinly

Cabbage, shredded

Green beans, sliced

Shrimp, peeled (optional)

Squidballs, sluced into half (optional)

1/4 cup chicken broth

How to cook miki guisado:

1. Season pork with salt and pepper. If you are adding chicken and shrimps, season it a bit too. You have the option of pre boiling it or cooking it along with all the ingredients of the pancit. I usually pre boil then I set it aside.

2. Prepare fresh miki by soaking it in hot water (boiled) until all the noodles have separated. Drain and soak again in a new bowl of hot water. Wait for about two minutes then drain. Set aside.

3. Saute onions and garlic. Add in the pork. Once the pork has browned add in the chorizo, plus other meats you may want to add (squid ball, pre boiled shrimp or pre cooked chicken).

4. Add in the broth, the cooking wine, the oyster sauce and the soy sauce. Add in the pepper. Taste and adjust the seasoning using salt or soy sauce, depending on your preference.

5. Once you have seasoned it according to your taste, you can then add in the vegetables and cook for about three minutes

6. Add in the sesame oil and mix well.

7. Add in the pancit and toss until the sauce has spread evenly to the miki.

8. Serve with calamansi on the side.

So there you have it, i hope you would give this recipe a try. It is a great weekend meryenda or a nice recipe to serve for when you are expecting some guests.

For this recipe, i did not spend more then P150.00 to come up with geberous servings for at least four adults.
