This time I cook them just by putting garlic, oil, dark and light sauce... my girl likes it this way too...
one packet each....
bought some purple vegetables.. (san choy)
and made some soup with one beaten egg...
a simple meal for both of us..
noodles, fishcake and vegetable soup...
Thanks for the noodles, STP!
Sibu noodles? Hmm, interesting. Don't think can find it here at Perak, right?
ReplyDeleteMmmm... I haven't heard of sibu noodles before. Is your girl staying with you, just your boys outstation?
ReplyDeleteNothing beats a simple but delish home cooked meal, Claire. Have a good weekend!
i WANTTTT sibu noodles. where to buy in KL?
ReplyDeleteSabah's and Sarawak's noodles are different from our as they possess a strong eggy and alkaline taste.These noodles are even more popular than rice that they have become the daily staple of the locals. Sarawak Kolok Mee, Sibu Kampua Noodles, Sabah Tuaran Mee, Tamaparuli Mee etc. Have you tried all of them?
ReplyDeletehayley, different brand, yeah.. cannot find ..
ReplyDeleteirene: have a good weekend too!
rachel: have to tell that to STP... hahahaha...
pam: i tried kolok mee before but not kampua yet.. wait till i go subu one of these days ...
Mee Daddy? I thought you're supposed to cook soup noodles? I did not buy you the mee goreng, did I? They're available in Australia...so maybe they're sold at some places in the peninsula too.
ReplyDeleteThat bit about the strong eggy and alkaline taste is definitely not true. Our Sibu yellow noodles are pale and not as attractive looking as those over your side due to the low content of "kee" (whatever that is)...so they are softer or not as "khiew"...and gets soggy very quickly and easily - so must be skillful enough to cook them so as to dish out something just right and really nice.
No comments about those in Sabah or in Kuching but for one thing, my relatives in Kuching would get me to buy so many kgs from Sibu for festivals like Chinese New Year because, according to them, the Kuching noodles have too much "kee" and are not nice...like the mee in Semenanjung.
P.S.
ReplyDeleteKampua mee is a different type of mee altogether and is even paler than what's supposed to be "yellow noodles" here...and no eggy or alkaline taste - maybe there's a little egg used in the making but definitely no "kee".
I really wonder who's that making that comment and on what authority she makes them. Absolutely misleading!!!
stp, cool down man... cool... Pam is a teacher cum an avid traveler...
ReplyDeleteOh, you didnt give me the mee daddy la.. it has a chinese name.. now suddenly i cannot recall the name.. start with L alphabet I think.. and it is laksa curry.. cos my girl didnt want curry, I cook it dry for her.. it is the noodles that we want to eat.. hehehe... i like them cos they are more refined than the ones over here.. next time I wanna try the Mee Daddy...
Ah yes! I gave you the Lee Fah laksa noodles - made in Kuching. I gave Eugene the Mee Daddy - made in Sibu. Come, come to Sibu...and I'll give you the made-in-Sibu ones. Eugene loves it - always wants more. LOL!!!
ReplyDeletedo you have pictures of the noodle packet or not?
ReplyDeletestp: aiyah..kuching noodles ah.. then that means I wrote wrongly liow.. should i amend? but the title will be still be shown Sibu.. hahaha.. never mind.. if anyone asks, I will say.. oh, Kuching noodles.. sorry.. i took for granted they were from Sibu!
ReplyDeletelena: none la.. but it is Lee Fah as stp mentioned and they were from Kuching wor..

ReplyDeleteYum! I want those noodles!! : )
ReplyDeleteOh, at first i thought STP give you dry kampua, till i read the comment above.
ReplyDeleteNext time can ask STP to bring you some dried kampua from Sibu, then you can cook at home too, but best still go to Sibu and try.
Psssttt..STP see, i help you to promote Sibu, getting people to go there and visit you. hahahah
