Stir-Fried Hokkien Mee (福建面)

Was wondering what to have for dinner?  Just then I chanced upon this at let’s get wokking.  From the photos, the Hokkien mee looks like those served at local zichar’s stall which I havent had it for a long time and kind of miss it. 

Unfortunately, mine was a little too dry but overall am quite pleased with the taste.

Recipe adapted from Let’s Get Wokking
 

1 tablespoon Minced Garlic
2 tablespoon Cooking Oil
1 teaspoon Corn Flour
a pinch of Salt

1/2 tablespoon Oyster Sauce
1 1/2 teaspoon Dark Soy Sauce
1/2 tablespoon Light Soy Sauce
Corn flour Mixture

Method:

1. Marinate pork slices with a pinch of salt and corn flour.  Set aside.
2. Blanched noodles, drain and set aside.
3. Stir-fry 1/4 tablespoon garlic in a tablespoon oil till fragrant.
4. Add in the pork slices  squids and prawns.
5. Stir fry till just cooked.  Dish out and set aside.
6. In the same wok, add in the remaining oil and garlic.  Stir-fry till fragrant.
7. Add in the blanched noodles. Toss to coat well with garlic and oil.
8. Add in water and bring to a boil.
9. Add in the seasonings, except for salt and corn flour mixture.

11. Mix well with noodles and sauce.
12. Gradually, stir in the corn flour mixture to thicken the sauce.

Note:

• Adjust the ‘darkness’ of the sauce by adjusting the amount of Dark Soy Sauce. Usually a premium Dark Soy Sauce is thicker and darker.
• The amount of Oyster Sauce and Light Soy Sauce used to season the noodles also depends on if you are using water or chicken broth. Please adjust according to your taste.
