# Guide to Cooking:
01 -
Boil water and remove from heat. Soak instant noodles in the hot water for 10 to 15 minutes, stirring once at 5 minutes to prevent sticking. Drain thoroughly and set aside.
02 -
Combine Tom Yum paste, soy sauce, sweet soy sauce, granulated sugar, and water in a bowl. Stir until homogeneous and set aside.
03 -
Place wok or skillet on high heat until properly heated.
04 -
Add vegetable oil to the heated wok. When oil is hot, add minced garlic and chicken slices. Stir-fry until chicken is nearly cooked through.
05 -
Add the Tom Yum paste mixture to the wok and stir continuously for about one minute until the chicken is fully cooked and flavors meld.
06 -
Incorporate softened noodles and shredded cabbage into the wok. Stir to combine evenly with other ingredients.
07 -
Push noodles to one side of the wok. Crack two eggs onto the empty side and lightly break the yolks. Cook eggs for approximately 30 seconds, then cover with noodles and stir after an additional 30 seconds to finish cooking the eggs.
08 -
Remove from heat and garnish with green onions. Serve immediately.
# Extra Suggestions:

Adjust the amount of Tom Yum paste to suit spice tolerance. Sweet soy sauce (kicap manis) is available at Asian markets. Garnish with cilantro or lime wedge to enhance flavor.
