    Lucia,

    Welcome to Rasa Malaysia. I am away from home, so I have to make do with what I can get in the US in terms of ingredients, etc. so I have to be creative with my cooking some time.

    I loved Edgecumb Road Mee Goreng, but I couldn’t find them anymore as they moved a long time ago. If you know, do tell. :)

    Hi – i just love mee goreng and want to make this at home, but we don’t get yellow noodles here – what would be a good substitute? that is, would any thick noodle do?

    thanks!

    I’m an Aussie who has had a passion for Malaysian hawker food ever since working in a Malaysian restaurant called Chinta Blues ten years ago… I also love Indonesian food, in fact the whole SE Asia region!

    I cooked mee goreng last night using your recipe to resounding applause. I put fried shallots on top and included green beans, excluded squid because I was cooking for a vegetarian. I remembered that at Chinta Blues they included fresh tomato. I find that the key ingredient (not always listed in recipes) is ketchup.

    Cheers,

    Emma

    I lived in Brunei was 9 years and used to get this from the Tamu over the weekends! Tried this recipe out last night and my family LOVED it. A couple of changes I made though…
    ○ Since I was cooking for my family, I used a two pound pack of noodles
    ○ I substituted the potato for Crimini mushrooms (which gave a nice meaty but light texture), and
    ○ doubled the quantity of the squid (since my family LOVES squid)
    ○ Also, for the chili paste, I used far more than ten chilies.

    My Mee Goreng came out super spicy but it was pretty darn tasty. If I do say so myself :)

    Hi! What type of noodles did you use? What brand?

    For those who live in the US, go to a chinese grocery store and look for “guangoong style dried noodles or similar” It works sooo well. You can get the rest in the same place like saw, tofu, beans sprout. You can use tomato ketchup and the rest of the ingredients in the recipe. I grow my own chille padi and use it.- small world. I have been here for 45 years and I am from KL.

    If you break the eggs and pour on the top of the noodles and stir it well, it will be more tastier and creamy ;-)
    Nice recipe
