Teo Chew mee tiau is a type of mee (noodles) that uses salt as preservatives, so you don’t have to add any salt when cooking it. It is sold in dried form and can be bought from wet market or hypermarket. I got this packet of mee tiau from Tesco Mutiara, PJ.
Teo Chew people will normally fry it plain without adding any dark soya sauce and eggs but in this recipe I used dark soya sauce. Some people says that it is tastier without dark soya sauce but some says otherwise. As for me, I prefer to fry it with dark soya sauce and eggs.
Ingredients
Teo Chew Mee Tiau, 1 packet, blanched in boiling water until soft, drain away the water.
Garlic, 10 pcs, chopped into small pieces
Eggs, 3 pcs
Dark Soya Sauce, 1 teaspoon
Light Soya Sauce, 1 tablespoon
Beans sprout (taugeh), 1 packet (RM0.50)
Chinese chives (kuchai), (optional), cut into small strips
Heat up wok and add 4 table spoon of vegetable oil. Sauteed garlic until fragrant. Add in the eggs and fry for a short while before adding the light soya sauce. Put in the cooked mee tiau, add dark soya sauce and fry for around 2 minutes. Add Chinese chives and bean sprouts. Fry for around 1 minute and the dish are ready.
Note: Do not add salt. The mee tiau has already got lots of salt in it.
