Also known as suan la fen (酸辣粉) in Chinese, they are sweet potato noodles in a spicy and sour soup topped off with fresh coriander, spring onions, peanuts, soybeans, and pickled vegetables (zha cai). This dish is spicy, hot, sour, and savoury. What more can you ask for? This is part of our ''Something Spicy'' series, where we explore different spicy foods.
