Quickie Ee Mee (Egg Noodles) Recipe – Halal

I cooked this ee mee (dried egg noodles) as supper for my kids recently. It was quite late at night, passed my kids’ bed time, so I had to cook something simple and quick!

Ingredients Ee Mee, 1 block
Water, 1 big bowl (2 large rice bowls)
Garlic, 5 pcs, chopped into small pieces
Egg, 1 pc Black Soya Sauce, 1 tea spoon
Light soya sauce, 1 table spoon
Pepper, ¼ teaspoon Prawn, 5 pcs
Corn Flour (or Tapioca flour), 3 table spoons mixed with a little bit of cold water
Salt to taste
Sesame oil, ½ teaspoon
Chicken meat (optional), 10 small pieces
Black Vinegar (optional), 2 table spoons (don’t add this if you do not like the sour taste)
Vegetable (Sawi), (optional)

Sautéed garlic in 2 tablespoon of oil until fragrant. Add prawn and chicken meat. Stir for a short while. Add water. Bring to a boil. Then add black soya sauce, light soya sauce, pepper and sesame oil. Put in the ee mee. Thicken the soup with corn flour. Beat the eggs and slowly pour into the soup while stirring it. Add vegetable and salt to taste. Add vinegar before serving.

LOL... My husband loves this very much! I used to cook this for him, but these days, I'm too lazy to hunt down ee mee... I use the maggie seasoning for flavour, tho.

I see that you don't normally use oyster sauce in your cooking but the color for the noodles is just right. When is another cook out? I might consider flying over. LOL!
