Love To Bake Kl Hokkien Mee (Video) - Kl Sel Mff #1

This month's MFF features the nutrient from the most populous surface area inwards Malaysia, Selangor as well as Kuala Lumpur. Visit Shannon's spider web log for the intro

This is my favourite belatedly nighttime supper nutrient when I was withal staying inwards Klang Valley.

My as well as then boyfriend, straight off husband, is some other large fan of this as well as whenever hunger pangs hitting us at 11pm or 12 midnight, we'll caput over to Nan King Coffeeshop, Taipan USJ as well as pick out our fix. Sometimes, nosotros pick out this equally dinner too!

Weirdly, alongside it originating from KL, it is non delicious out of Klang valley. Those inwards Perak cannot be compared to those inwards either KL or Selangor. I mean value those inwards Perak practice non know the undercover seasoning agent that makes it different, the dried sole powder

I got to know of this element when Jason(Axian) did a present on the origins of this dish. And from the present I got to know it was invented inwards Petaling Street as well as the master copy store is withal inwards performance until this day, but non the same people manning the shop, definitely : ) Read a review close the shop here

After eating for many years at Nan King, I pick out come upwards to know the procedure of cooking the noodle. They pick out an opened upwards kitchen where i tin come across the flaring flames as well as smoky woks I pick out tried cooking this dish long before...but without the dried sole powder. There was indeed something missing. And since I recieved a large bottle of the dried sole pulverization from fellow blogger HKChoo, I could in conclusion replicate a homecooked version that I tin last pretty much proud of :)

FYI, in that place are smaller bottles of dried sole powder, sold inwards supermarkets nether the same build that I am using. It tin also last used equally a quick soup base. I've opened it for many months, as well as the stock pulverization is withal pretty much powdery instead of caking upwards similar other types of stock powders. It's quite handy if yous involve some extra boot inwards your cooking. But I don't move it frequently :)

My procedure of cooking is adapted to suit dwelling stoves of which is non equally hot equally commercial stoves.
Wok scent is in that place :)
