Hello everyone! Hope you're enjoying your weekend. We are at home because Lyn, my girlfriend has dengue, what is a tropical disease that give a lot of headache and fiver. These days I've cooked for her, it hurts me a lot that I have no appetite and I don't want to eat, but that's another of the consequences of the dengue.

When the water is boiling, add the noodles and keep cooking for 15 minutes. In another recipient, put to boil the banana or malanga and add to the soup at the moment to serve.
