Aulacese Quang noodle is cooked with soup base, the topping and the noodle. It is served with fresh vegetables, roasted crushed peanuts and toasted rice paper.
Soup base

(2) Take out all the cooked vegetables, add salt and sugar, tumeric , some chili, some onion, and finally add a teaspoon cooking oil and onion to make it tasty and rich. The broth is ready.

(4) Heat the pan and add 6 tablespoons of vegetable oil; add the lemongrass and stir it until it turns yellow. Take out two tablespoons of oil for adding to the cooked noodle later. (5) Add some tumeric powder to the oil and cook for 5 minutes until the ingredients are turning a golden color. Add some tomatoes; add some broth.
