The dish is usually accompanied by a flavorful soy-based broth and a side of chili sauce for added kick.
Ingredients
- 1 pound pork belly sliced into thick pieces
- 1 pound pork intestines cleaned and sliced
- 10.5 ounces firm tofu cut into cubes
- 4 hard-boiled eggs
- 1 tablespoon dark soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon light soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon fish sauce
- 1 teaspoon five-spice powder

- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 1 onion diced
- 2 cups chicken broth or pork broth
- 1 pound flat rice noodles (kway teow)
- Fresh coriander leaves for garnish

Instructions
- In a large pot, bring water to a boil and blanch the pork belly and intestines for a few minutes. Drain and set aside.
- In a separate pot, heat vegetable oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and diced onion, and sauté until fragrant and golden brown.
- Add the blanched pork belly, intestines, and tofu to the pot. Stir-fry for a few minutes until lightly browned.
