Cantonese Style Fried noodles

Cantonese Style Fried noodles



My son Lucas love this noodles, he always buy this Cantonese style fried noodle from school's canteen. I told my son, if I were to cook for you , the noodles definitey will taste better than the one which is sold in the school , because there will be more ingredients and no MSG added.

This time I cook with rice vermicelli (mee hoon) and flat rice noodles (koey Teow), similar like those we can find in tai chow (hawker stall) or Chinese restaurant, they name as "Yin Yong". You can also replaced the noodles with Yee mee (fried egg noodles).
