weekdays noodle

Category: adult food

Who says you need all sorts of things when cooking something that involves blanching and frying in the making? The tips is that, use the same utensil for all procedures.


For example, I want to prepare telur dadar, stir-fry sayur and ikan goreng. First, masak telur dadar. Using the same kuali, masak sayur pulak. Next, you may want to rinse the kuali a bit. Lapkan and panaskan minyak untuk goreng ikan pulak. In the end, you only have ONE kuali to wash. As a working mom, I can’t be cerewet and use different utensil for different type of cooking.

Also, I want to share easy peasy WEEKDAYS NOODLE. It is easy to prepare, and takes a short time also, hence the name. To accommodate the little time we have during weekdays to prepare dinner for our family.

Here goes..

Ingredients
Mee (jenis yang selalu buat wantan mee)
Chicken stock
Bawang kisar
Tomato
Fishball
Kicap
Sesame oil
Garam

Step-by-step
MEE
Put water into a wok and bring to boil.
Add cooking oil.
Drop mee into the boiling water.
Cook until just tender.
Transfer into tapis and rinse.
Add kicap and sesame oil to the mee and gaulkan sampai rata.

SOUP
Heat frozen chicken stock sampai cair.
Meanwhile, panaskan wok tadi dan masukkan minyak.
Tumis bawang kisar until fragrant.
Add chicken stock, bring to a boil.
Add fishball and tomato.
Add a bit of salt to taste (jangan masin sgt sbb mee dah digaul dengan kicap)

Ambil mee and add the soup, serve immediately (kalau tak mee ti ‘soggy’ dan jadi besar dan lembik). To beautify, garnish with potongan daun bawang dan daun sup.


mee yang digunakan. sebelum kena celur



mee tengah kena celur. kuali tu digunakan utk menumis later



chicken stock (maaf Iman, Ummi ambik seketul), melting



mee yang dah digaul kicap dan minyak bijan



taraaaa.... (takde daun bawang - kehabisan stok!)
