The first time I made this - it tasted... not as I expected... well I did not know how to in the first place. At least it had taste and I did not get any food poisoning! Hehehe. I remember buying those yellow noodles in packets in the Asian groceries or Coles. Pretty easy to find, and quite popular too.
I somehow managed to learn to cook it better and after that, find it one of the simplest filling meals to cook, especially when you have classes in between the days and, pocket running thin to eat out... :-)
:: Ingredients ::
1 small packet yellow noodles
1/2 green onions, sliced
2 garlic cloves, chopped
1 small green chili, finely chopped (I like it a little spicy)
Some vege - green leafy vege (I used kailan - just something that I had in the fridge)
cauliflower, carrots, bean sprouts or etc. Be creative and healthy!
Some fishballs, chicken and prawns.
a pinch of Salt
A dash of Pepper
About a tablespoon each of:
Light soy sauce
Dark soy sauce
Oyster sauce
Tomato sauce
Fry the onion and garlic. Add in meats, fry a little before adding in vege. Add in all the sauces, combine, fry a little and add 1/2 a cup of water. Pour in the noodles and fry until everything is well mixed.
Add eggs, if you like.
Serve while still fresh from frying. Noodles gets soggy after a while, so eating it when it's just fried is the best!
Garnish with fried shallots, chopped onion chives and a little bowl of cut chilis in soy sauce.
I basically use whatever I have to cook the noodles. After all, it is meant to be simple and practical... And some meat to make the noodle more tasty.Look at these interesting noodles too:
