Mee Hoon Kueh / Mien Fen Guo

Been eating too much fried food lately which accounts for my sore throat. I prepared this last nite for this morning breakfast. It is easy to make and no machine nor mixer is needed. Work with just your hands!

Making of the Mien Fen Guo

Ingredient:
- 75mL water
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 egg
- 320g plain flour (sieved)

Method:
- Add water and salt to eggs and beat gently.
- Pour egg mixture into plain flour gradually. Mix and knead till a smooth dough is formed.
- Cover dough with a wet cloth and leave at room temperature for 30 minutes.
- Knead again and leave aside for another 2 hours and is ready to use.
- Store in fridge. (To maintain freshness, use within 2 days.)
- Tear dough into small pieces and stretch them until thin.
- To cook, put pieces into boiling soup one at a time.

I prepared soup stock using ikan bilis. When preparing the mee hoon kueh, boil the small pieces of dough in the stock and serve with minced meat and vege. Oh! Don forget the egg and some fried onion, shallot. Fried ikan bilis will be a bonus.

Dry mee hoon kueh can be done too. Simply boil the dough and mix in some chilli paste, dark soya sauce and shallot oil. Getting the right chilli paste is important here.
