Mamak style Mee Goreng (Fry Egg Noodles)

Ingredients
  

Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp oil
  • 1 Onions sliced
  • ½ tbsp Garlic minced
  • 8 - 10 Prawns choice
  • Squids choice
  • Fish cakes choice
  • 1 - 2 Boiled potatoes sliced
  • 1 Firm tofu sliced
  • 3 - 5 Red chillies chopped
  • 200 g Noodles
  • 3 Eggs one egg per portion
  • 1 bowl Beansprouts choice
  • 1 juice of lime or limau kastauri
  • 1 bunch Spring onions cut
  • salt and pepper to season
  • sugar optional

Sauce Ingredients mix in a bowl

  • 1 tbsp Tomato sauce
  • 1 tbsp Chilli sauce
  • ½ tbsp Caramel soy sauce
  • ½ tbsp Light soy sauce
  • ½ tsp Turmeric
  • ½ tsp Curry powder

Topping

  • Crispy shallots (optional)
  • Ground peanuts (optional)
  • Lime or Calamansi

Instructions
 

  • In a hot smoking wok, heat in 2 tablespoon of oil. Then fry your garlic and onions, your first 2 ingredients.
  • Next add in the rest of the 5 ingredients and give everything a good stir before adding the noodles and sauces. OR you can fry the noodles first (you need to be fast so as not to break your noodles if you do this way)
  • Make a space in the middle or side of your noodles and add in the beaten eggs. Give everything a good turn of the spatula to mix.
  • If too dry add a touch of water. In the last minute stir in your beansprouts just before serving if using.
  • Sprinkle with ground peanuts (optional), crispy shallots, fresh coriander and limes if desire. I do prefer mine a tad more sour.

Notes

Please fell free to add or not some of the ingredients. I do not use sugar in mine and I prefer mine err to the sour side. It is up to you to taste and season. To me as long as your sauce contains chillies sauce, tomato sauce, dark and light soy sauce, turmeric, curry powder and the sour lime juice it is mamak mee goreng.
