- There are variations of hokkien noodle. Choose the thick one. Soak noodles in boiling water to soften. Drain and set aside. Since i don’t take pork or lard, i use other type of animal fat. Below is a picture of animal fat i use at home.
- Heat wok. Pour in oil (or lard if using). Add garlic then meat slices, cook for 2 to 3 mins.
- In separate bowl, mix all the sauces- cooking caramel (if using), dark soy sauce, sesame oil, ground pepper. Pour this mixture into the wok. Add water, sugar and chicken cube (if needed). Stir. Then add noodle and cut green vegies of your choice. Next Add corn starch mixture. Let it simmer again till gravy thickens. Adjust taste to your liking. If using lard, add another spoon of lard to the noodle at this stage. Stir and remove from the heat.
- Serve hot.
