Fried Mee Sua 炒面线

I usually cook soupy Mee Sua and never thought that it can be fried as noodle because of its rather delicate texture. It tasted really special after a round of pan frying till golden brown prior to stir-frying with the other ingredients!




Pan fried Mee Sua in hot oil before using

Ingredient
  • 200gm Mee Sua , 面线
  • 5 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 shallots, sliced
  • 300gm cabbage, sliced
  • 70gm carrots, shredded
  • 70gm enoki mushroom
  • 1 red capsicum, sliced thinly
  • 200gm chicken fillet, sliced thinly*
  • 2/3 cup water
  • 2 tsp chicken stock powder
  • 3 tbsp light soy sauce
  • 3 tbsp hoisin sauce
  • 1/4 tsp white pepper
  • dash of sesame oil

Method
  1. Marinate chicken fillet with 1 tsp light soy sauce, 1 tsp sesame oi, 1 tsp wine & 1 cornstarch.
  2. Heat 1/2 cup oil in wok. Add in one piece flour vermicelli and pan fried for a few seconds till golden brown for  both sides. Remove and drain well. Repeat till all flour vermicelli are fried.
  3. Meanwhile bring a pot of water to boil. Turn off heat, add in fried vermicelli and steep for 5 mins, use a chopstick to lightly loosen the strands. Drain away water.
  4. Heat 2 tbsp oil in wok, add in shallots and fried for a min until fragrant. Add in garlic and fry briefly.
  5. Add in marinated chicken fillet and fried till it turns opaque.
  6. Add in enoki mushroom and mix evenly.
  7. Add in cabbage and carrots and toss evenly for 3 mins until cabbage is softened.
  8. Add in fried vermicelli from step (3) and red capsicum. With a chopstick and spatula, toss the mixture evenly.
  9. Add in water and seasoning and mix well. Stir fry till mixture is fairly dried. Adjust taste if desired. Serve immediately.

Definitely my kind of stir-fry noodles ! Your dish reminds me of my fave "bihon" a Filipino-style noodle dish but uses rice sticks instead of mee sua :)
