Fried beehoon

This is a simple and easy to make dish. I usually prepare this for breakfast over the weekends.



Ingredients:
Rice noodles - 1/2 bag
Onions (thinly sliced) - 1
Garlic (crushed) - 1
Dried shrimps (crushed) - 10-15
Carrot (thinly cut into strips) - 1
Cabbage (thinly cut into strips) - 1/4
Chicken breast (cut into small chunks)
Eggs - 2
Chilli powder - 1 tbsp
Soy sauce - 2 tbsp
Salt to taste

Soak the rice noodles in warm water. Drain them once soft and set aside.
Heat up the wok with some oil. Put in the crushed garlic and dried shrimps. Give it a good stir and add in the onions. Add the chilli powder, soy sauce and salt and cook until the rawness of the spice is gone. Put in the chicken pieces and stir well. Next, add the cabbage, carrots and rice noodles. Continue to stir until everything is well mixed and add in the eggs.
(I usually fry the eggs separately before adding them in.)
Dish out and serve.

Phew! I'm finally able to update this blog after a 3 month hiatus! Hope you enjoy this chicken sambal recipe! Ingredients: Chicken - 15-20 medium sized pieces Dried chillies - 8-10 Red onion - 2 Garlic (crushed) - 1 clove Ginger - 2 inch piece Shallots -3 Tomato - 1 Chili sauce - 3 tbsp Lemongrass - 2 stalks Salt to taste Sugar to taste Blend half of the red onion, shallots, garlic, ginger and deseeded dried chilies with a food processor. You can also use a mortal and pestle. The latter gives a better texture and taste. Slice thinly the remaining red onion into rings. Put in the chicken and continue to stir until half cooked. Heat some oil in a pan and fry the spice paste with lemongrass until fragrant. Remove from heat and add them together with the chicken and cook well. Season with salt, and sugar.
