Batchoy Recipe

Batchoy is a soup dish composed of sliced pork, pig’s innards, and miki noodles.

This dish originated from the district of La Paz in Iloilo City — in the island of Panay. Throughout the years, batchoy gained popularity and has been a favorite soup dish along with beef mami, beef pares, and bulalo.

The miki noodles used in this recipe refers to fresh egg noodles. This type of noodle is often used in soup dishes. Since the noodles are fresh, it requires minimal cooking time. Sometimes, pouring hot broth over the noodles is enough to cook it.

Traditional batchoy recipe requires the use of shrimp paste or guinamus (or guinamos). Unlike regular shrimp paste or bagoong, the shrimp paste used in traditional batchoy are sold in small blocks. It is usually mixed in water and boiled until the flavor comes out. It is later strained and the liquid is added to the broth or caldo. If you can’t find this type of guinamus, you can always use regular shrimp paste – like what I did.

    Boil it with alot of pork bones , that will give more flavors. Toast a garlic too to garnish and fresh green onion. Please dont forget eggs. It could be boiled eggs or raw eggs before you put the boiling broth over it. And pair it with puto.

    i’m half-ilongga and i never miss la paz batchoy when i’m in iloilo. i like it with fresh egg, added right before they pour in the broth. Though i know some people don’t like raw eggs, the hot broth actually cooks it and makes a huge difference, adds creaminess and flavor to the broth. Thank you for sharing this dish.

    Question here.
    This is my favorite and haven’t had it for many years.
    The miki noodle looks like Pancit Canton. Can I replace the noodle with PnacanCanton?
    I don’t think we have miki noodle available in our area.
    Or any other dey Chinese yellow noodles?
    Appreciate your response 🙂

      miki po is fresh egg noodles, you can also use bihon (rice sticks), misua(wheat flour noodles) or sotanghon (vermicelli), the only thing is it needs to be cooked first, unlike the fresh egg noodles you can directly put the broth. hope this helps
