Fried Laksa Noodle with Tom- Yum Paste

There is a very famous and tasty fried mee-siam in 1-Utama at KL. My children like it very much. I found it is actually mee-hoon fried with Tom-Yum Paste. It does not taste like what we eat in Singapore with fermented soya bean paste.

Here is my version of fried laksa noodle with instant Tom-Yum paste. Not bad after all. However the rest of my family did not like it because the thicker noodles failed to soak up the tasty tom yum. Thus i will recommend cooking it with normal mee-hoon. It is really very simple and fast to prepare. Is and ideal dish for breakfast or tea break. If you like Thai food, shall give it a try.

Recipe: (serves 8 -10)

Ingredients:
~1) 1 teaspoon chopped garlic
~2) 1 tablespoon chopped shallots
~3) 3 eggs - beaten
~4) 2 packets (840 g) laksa noodle
~5)100 g bean sprouts
~6) 25 shelled prawns ( you can add in your favourite sea food)

Seasoning:
2 1/2 - 3 tablespoon instant tom-yum paste ( I used HOLLY FARMS Brand)
2 1/2 teaspoon lime juice (adjust to your taste)
2 1/2 teaspoon fish sauce
2 1/2 teaspoon light soy sauce
1 teaspoon sesame oil
2 teaspoon sugar
1 - 1 1/4 cup water

Method:
~1) Heat up wok with sufficient oil, saute chopped garlics and shallots until fragrant. Add in prawns, fish cake (your favourite ingredients), beaten eggs and stir -fry until aromatic.
~2) Add in laksa noodle, seasoning and stir-fry until cooked. Add in bean sprouts and stir well or the gravy is totally absorbed by the noodle. Dish up and serve.

ENJOY!
