Wet weather = Hot Sopas Recipe + hot boyfriend

I am pretty sure you are one of the people who are beginning to hate the weather these past few days. Right after the dreadful storm Maring, which flooded lots of big cities in Luzon, it still rains every afternoon. You can’t go outside. The process of going home from work is much more difficult. But, the thing is, we are Filipinos. We are known to find a beautiful spot in our hearts to still smile and take advantage of this bad weather. Why don’t we just cuddle with the ones we love and heat up our body with a big mouthful of this Sopas recipe? I am most certain it would make the day a lot more fun than sulking in front of the rain right?

Here’s the my hot boyfriend’s hot Sopas recipe:

Ingredients:

½ kl Macaroni shell or elbow

½ kl whole chicken breast

1 tetra pack of nestle cream

¼ Butter

Carrots (sliced)

Cabbage cut into thin slices

Garlic (as many as you want)

1 Onion

water

Here’s how a Hot Sopas Recipe is made:

1.     Put the whole chicken breast into a shallow pan with enough water to cover the chicken. Season with salt and pepper. Bring to boil.

2.     Separate the chicken and the stock. Set aside.

3.     Once chicken is warm enough to be touched, shred it into pieces. Set aside.

4.     On another shallow pan, sauté butter and minced garlic. You can put a bit of oil so the butter won’t burn.

5.     On another pan, boil the elbow or shell macaroni.

6.     Once the macaroni is already boiled and tender, remove the water and replace it with the chicken stock.

7.     Bring to boil.

8.     Add the sliced carrots and quartered onion

9.     Add the shredded chicken and nestle cream

10. Once it’s nearly done, add in the shredded cabbage.

11. Season with salt and pepper to taste. You can also add umami for a better taste.

12. Serve and enjoy this ultimate hot Sopas recipe

See, you don't have to always hate the weather. You just have to learn how you can take advantage of it. And the best person to do it with is the one you lalala-love right? Happy rainy-stormy-flooded day for us! - xoxo your Sisig Master
