Your’s looks yummy! I posted a vegetarian version of mee goreng a while ago if you’re keen (http://cupcakesncurries.com/2014/05/01/stir-fried-spicy-mushroom-noodles-mushroom-mee-goreng/) Singaporeans love our mer goreng too ! 🙂

Now this is some great Asian comfort food. My boys would love the fact that you added 2 tablespoons of chili oil to this dish. I have everything in my pantry to make this for lunch tomorrow. Take Care, BAM

The sauce is the key and I can’t really recreate. This is another dish that I want to try making it at home! Malaysian food is so hard to get so I have to cook my own… :/
I can find the noodles but not the fish cake. Any good substitutes? Would really like to try this! Thanks–
Try fish balls but it wont have that unique fishy taste that the fish cakes can give
