Malay Style Spicy Mee Hoon Goreng 马来香辣炒米粉

Usually i like to cook fried Mee Hoon during lunch time, from economic fried beehoon, simple Hokkien fried mee hoon, Tom Yum fried mee hoon, Mee Siam and this yummy and spicy Malay style of fried mee hoon.





Best to enjoy with Barley drink to cool down our body..


 This pounded ikan bilis paste made the fried meehoon so aromatic!


I used homemade chili paste that i have cooked till oil split and long hours. If you just use dried chili paste or store bought chili paste, then you have to fry the chili paste longer a bit. I am re-post this basic chili paste recipe from my IG account in here.

300g Mee Hoon / rice vermicelli, soak in water for 15mins
½ onion, sliced
100g fresh prawns
60g chicken meat
100g cabbage, sliced

2tbsp oyster sauce
2tbsp Kicap manis
1tsp salt or to taste
1tsp sugar



Use mortar and pestle pound to paste
2 shallots, sliced
2 garlic, sliced
20g ikan bilis / anchovies , washed

Garnishing with-fried shallots and red chili

Method
1.      Heat cooking oil in a wok. Saute onions till slightly golden brown and aromatic.
2.      Add in pounded ikan bilis paste, stir fry till aroma. Then add in chili paste (I used homemade chili paste which has already cooked longer time), stir to mix well. If you are using raw blended dried chili paste or store-bought chili Boh, then you have to fry it slightly longer.
3.      Add in prawns, chicken meat and carrot, stir to mix well. Add in 1 and ½ cup of water (adjust accordingly to the type of Mee Hoon brand you are using. To be secure, add 1 cup water first then adjust accordingly), add in oyster sauce, kicap manis, salt and sugar, bring to boil.
4.      Add in soaked Mee Hoon and cabbage, stir to mix well. Cover the wok, cook for few minutes.
5.      Open the lid, continue to stir Mee Hoon till dry and cooked. Add more hot water if you feel the Mee Hoon mixture is dry.
6.      Last add in Chinese chives, mix well and dish out. Garnish with fried shallot and red chili, serve warm or cool.
