Economy Fried Bee Hoon

No comments

In keeping with its name, this is a simple and economic dish to prepare.  
The only difference from the plain fried meehoon sold in the food stalls is 
I have added dried prawns.  Even though this dish is plain, it tastes nice 
on its own due to the soy seasonings.  ( I have added extra fish sauce).

This is also great for parties as it is filling and can complement all other 
finger foods and curries that you may prepare. It can also be eaten hot, 
warm or cold with the same great taste. 

Ingredients:

400g          Bee Hoon
2 cloves     Garlic ( minced )
2               Shallots ( thinly sliced )
200g          Bean sprouts
1               Carrots ( julienned )
50g            Dried prawns ( minced )

 Sauce mixtures:

2 tablespoons     Dark soy sauce
1 tablespoon       Light soy sauce
2 tablespoon       Fish sauce
1 teaspoon          Sesame oil
1 teaspoon          Sweet soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon       White pepper 


Method:
1.    Soak beehoon until it becomes semi-soft.
2.    Mix the sauces for seasonings together in a bowl.
3.    Heat wok with 1 tablespoon of oil and fry the beaten egg into an 
       omelette. Slice thinly and set aside.
4.    Heat wok with one tablespoon oil, fry garlic and shallots until fragrant.
5.    Add the sauce mixture and softened meehoon. Stir using a pair of 
       chopsticks.
6.    Adjust seasonings accordingly to taste.
7.    Transfer to a serving bowl and garnish with the egg slices and fried 
       onions.  Serve hot.


So economical yet so fulfilling.  Enjoy!!!
