Mee Mamak was my favorite supper back home. As a college
student, I used to spend hours at Mamak stall with friends, we
talked, we laughed and we shared so much about dreams.
Those were the days, we were young and innocent, and now we
are all scattered at different places, walking different walk of
lives... ...
Whenever I miss my friends and my dear homeland. I stir up
this tasty noodle, and re-live those memories again.
Ingredients:
1/2 packet yellow/cooked noodle
1/2 piece of firm tofu
1/2 medium size tomato (cubed)
2 tbsp Sambal
Belacan
4-5 medium shrimp(shelled and veined)
7-8 slices of chicken, marinate with pepper and salt(I used
Mussel instead)
4-5 slices of fish cake/ sliced fish ball
1 tsp minced garlic
1 tbsp fried shallot
1/2 - 1 cup of moong bean sprout
1 bunch of Chinese mustard (Sawi)
1 egg(Optional)
Seasoning:
2 tbsp Light soy sauce
1/2 tsp Dark soy sauce
1 tsp Sweet chili sauce(Maggie or ABC brand, or substitute
with ketchup).
1 tsp Oyster sauce(Optional)
Salt to taste
1. Fry the tofu till golden in color, let cold and slice into
5mm in thickness. In the same cooking wok, stir fry minced garlic
and half of the fried shallot. Add the fish cake/ball pieces, if
using chicken, stir together.
2. Now add 2 tbsp of Sambal
Belacan,stir for a minute or so, add 1/4 cup of water and bring
to boil, add chopped tomato. Season with Sweet Chili sauce/ketchup,
light and dark soy sauce.
3. Add shrimp, noodle, tofu, and vegetable (For
crunchy/fresher look, add the vegetables later). Stir well,
add mussel, and give it quick stir at high heat. If you like
to make it with egg, push the noodle aside, and crack the egg in,
and turn the noodle with egg quickly until well coated with
egg.
4. Sprinkle chopped spring onion and fried shallot before
serving.
