Mee Goreng

Mee Goreng the hot and spicy stir fried noodles from Malaysia and Indonesia, best served with a cold cucumber, tomato and topped with fried egg

I ate a lot of these back in Malaysia, I had it during breakfasts, lunch, dinner and even at tea time, it is everywhere from the streets to some seriously good restaurants. All of them have different variations from using instant noodles topped with fried eggs to using good quality ingredients with fresh seafood, even different families cook it uniquely but one thing remains the same, it is stir fried yellow noodles flavoured with soy sauce and chilli.

The recipe below is my version, how about you how do you make your mee goreng?
