PREPARING INGREDIENTS FOR BEEF TOMATO VERMICELLI SOUP
• 100g vermicelli noodles
• 1 packet of shiitake mushrooms
• 3 small to medium-sized tomatoes
• 300-400g thinly sliced beef belly for hot pot
• 4 cups chicken broth
• 2 tablespoons tomato powder
• Ginger, garlic, spring onions, coriander
• Seasonings: soy sauce, fish sauce, sugar, sesame oil, white pepper, cooking oil.
STEPS TO MAKE BEEF TOMATO VERMICELLI SOUP
Step 1. Prepare the ingredients
Soak vermicelli in warm water for about 15 minutes until soft, then drain.

Remove mushroom stems, lightly rinse to remove any dirt, then divide into smaller, bite-sized pieces. Let drain.


Use a knife to make a small X-shaped incision on the bottom of each tomato. Place tomatoes in boiling water and blanch for 30 seconds. Then remove tomatoes and let cool.
Once tomatoes are cool enough to handle, peel off the skin and cut into small pieces.



Bring water to a boil then add the beef. Cook for 15 seconds or until the beef turns opaque white and bubbles form on the surface. Remove the beef from the pot and set aside.


Separate the green and white parts of the spring onions. Cut the white parts diagonally into 5-6 cm pieces. Finely chop the green parts.
Peel and slice the ginger. Crush and finely chop the garlic.

Step 2. Cooking the soup
Heat 1 tablespoon of cooking oil in a pot, add the white part of the spring onion and ginger, and sauté until fragrant.

Add garlic and tomato paste, and cook for 30 seconds, until the oil turns a reddish-orange color.


Add tomatoes, along with soy sauce, fish sauce, sugar, and sesame oil. Cook the tomatoes until they soften slightly, about 3 minutes.

Add 2 cups of water and chicken broth, cover, bring to a boil for about 5-10 minutes.

Add mushrooms and vermicelli, cover and simmer for another 2-3 minutes.


Add beef, white pepper, season to taste. Turn off the heat.

Step 3. Presentation
Serve the soup in large bowls, garnish with chopped coriander and spring onions. If you like it spicy, you can add a few slices of fresh chili. Enjoy your meal!
