Treat your ingredients with care...

  • Chicken or beef — For tender and juicy meat, slice it thinly against the grain before cooking.
  • Dried egg noodles — Cook the noodles until they are al dente to maintain a slight chewiness in the final dish.
  • Paprika — Use a good quality paprika to add a smoky and slightly sweet flavor to the Sapasui.
  • Fresh cilantro — Add the cilantro as a garnish just before serving to enhance the dish's freshness.

Tips & Tricks

  • To add an extra kick of heat, sprinkle some red pepper flakes or drizzle hot sauce over the finished dish.
  • Customize the vegetables according to your preference. You can add mushrooms, bean sprouts, or snow peas for additional texture and flavor.
  • For a vegetarian version, substitute the chicken or beef with tofu or tempeh.
  • If you prefer a spicier Sapasui, add a chopped chili pepper or a dash of chili powder to the sauce.
  • Leftovers can be refrigerated and reheated the next day. The flavors tend to meld together even more, making it even more delicious.

Presentation advice
