- Pour in the chicken or vegetable broth, fish sauce, and sugar. Stir everything together and bring the broth to a gentle simmer. Let it cook for about 15-20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
- While the broth is simmering, cook the tapioca or rice flour noodles according to the package instructions. Once cooked, drain and set aside.
