Hokkien Mee in Kuala Lumpur

July 28, 2005 @ Chinatown, Kuala Lumpur

My Singaporean friend came down for work and I took him to Chinatown to taste our very own Hokkien Noodle. You cannot find this authentic Hokkien Mee in Singapore or other places. Why? Because it simply does not taste the same outside of Malaysia ;-)

The noodle is cooked with black soy sauce and stir fried with pork, prawn, lat (gives the aroma!) and some vegies. The trick I learnt in cooking this noodle is you need a lot of lat and very hot 'wok'. For those who has not tried this special noodle, you can find them in Chinatown. The famous one is near an intersection, a very old shop behind a row of fruit stalls.
