This is a recommended dish for people who are not feeling well or sick as ikan bilis stock and spinach are both very nutritious. Spinach has a high nutritional value and is extremely rich in antioxidants, especially when fresh, steamed, or quickly boiled. It is a rich source of vitamin A (and especially high in lutein), vitamin C, vitamin E, vitamin K, magnesium, manganese, folate, iron, vitamin B2, calcium, potassium, vitamin B6, folic acid, copper, protein, phosphorus, zinc, niacin, selenium and omega-3 fatty acids (Wikipedia, 2010). Also, minsin noodles doesn't require much chewing and are easy to swallow.. So instead of porridge all the time, try this! Much tastier :)
As I'm totally not a fan of porridge, my mum will normally cook me this instead. She uses chicken instead of pork balls though, slightly healthier and not so fatty.
