Mee Goreng "mamak" or Fried Mee "mamak"

I have often ordered 'mee goreng mamak' in the Indian Muslim restaurant. There is one 24 hours 'mamak' restaurant outside our housing area. I love this noodles because it is sweet, spicy and sour. My children always ask for supper and I will usually prepare 'hokkien mee', tuna mee hoon, black pepper mee and 'mee sua' for them. I took the chance to 'goreng' (fry) this noodles for them. My younger son commented that the smell of this noodles very familiar with the one that was fried by the Indian Muslim restaurant and tasted similar.













To fry this 'mee mamak' you need to use the yellow mee. Other ingredient are as follow:-

eggs
'tow foo pok' or 'tow foo kua'
bean sprouts 'tow gay'
cabbage/'sawi'
tomatoes
garlic
ground chili
dark 'soya sauce'
light 'soya sauce'
green chili
shallots crisp

Heat 3 - 4 tablespoon oil in a 'kuali' until hot. Fried garlic until light brown and fragrant and add in the ground chili, tomato, tow foo pok, cabbage and stir fry. Push all the fried ingredients to one side. Add in some oil and fry the eggs with a few dash of light soya sauce. Add in the yellow mee and dark soya sauce and stir fry well. Keep frying to avoid sticking to kuali and sprinkle with a little water (can be omitted because the bean sprouts will contain some water!).
Lastly add in the bean sprouts and stir fry well. Garnish with green chili and shallots crisps. Squeeze half a lime and serve hot.

Have fun and be happy! ♥
