Rainy days call for comforting noodle recipes and this Homemade Mee Bakso has got to be our next favourite cold-weather meal.

We made this popular Indonesian street food from scratch! Juicy, homemade meatballs, MSG-free beef broth packed with umami flavour, a mix of yellow and rice noodles — it’s time to warm yourselves up with this freshly-made bowl of Indonesian meatball noodle soup.
