But yesterday dear hubby tell me he want to eat meehon, but sadly in the café there's no sign of meehon at all. All gone, he's too late for breakfast. Even meehon tray are also gone! Sad story from him. I know the feeling, trust me.
Realizing my role as a wife, I persuade him I will cook meehon for him tonight. Aamaigad what have I done! So I just browsed around to get tips and recipes. Here we go, I encounter one blog that gave tips and recipes at once! Here the tips:
1. Soak the vermicelli for a few minutes with hot boiling water.
2. After it is tender, quickly splash with running pipe water ( its to prevent vermicelli become to soft or flaccid)
3. To cook vermicelli, you can use one hand to hold the scoop and the other hand to hold fork. You can use fork to help you spread vermicelli with blended ingredients evenly.
The good thing if we use hot waiter, its only takes few minutes for vermicelli to soft rather than you soak it for few hours and still it is stiff. And here the recipes. The very basic Meehon Goreng recipes.
Half pack of rice noodle
Prawns (put as many as you like)
2-3 cloves of garlic and red onion
3 tbsp dried blended chili (blend together with the onion and shrimp paste) I used dried shrimp
2 tablespoon Chili sauce
2 tablespoon soy sauce (creamy-sweet or thick)
Eggs to make omelette and cut for garnish
Red chili for garnish
Salt
Methods
1. After the vermicelli is tender, tossed it so that excessive water will drain.
2. Heat the oil in a wok. Sauté blended ingredients, fry until fragrant.
3. Put all the sauces and stir. Add sugar and salt to taste.
4. Add prawns and stir-fry until cooked.
5. After boiled, add tossed vermicelli and stirred until all well mixed
6. For garnishing, sprinkle with cut omelette, red chilies.
