Ingredients
- 170 g egg noodles
- Vegetable oil, for stir-frying
- 100 g prawns, peeled, deveined
- Salt and black pepper
- 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
- 1 eschallot, finely chopped
- 1 carrot, thinly sliced
- 85 g Asian greens, roughly chopped (choy sum, bok choy, etc)
- 85 g beansprouts
- 1 tbsp fried shallot, fried egg (optional), sliced red chilli, spring onion curls, to serve
For the sauce
- 1 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp kecap manis
- 1 tbsp sambal oelek
- 1 tbsp oyster sauce
- ¼ cup chicken stock
Instructions
- Combine the ingredients for the sauce in a small bowl, then set aside. Bring a medium saucepan of water to the boil, then cook the egg noodles according to the package directions. Drain and set aside.
- Heat a drizzle of oil in a large wok or frying pan over high heat. Once hot, add the prawns and a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir-fry for 2-4 minutes, or until just cooked, then remove to a small plate. Return the pan to the heat with another drizzle of oil, then add the garlic and eschallot. Cook for 30 seconds, or until just fragrant (take care not to brown the garlic), then add the carrot and Asian greens. Cook for 1 minute, or until just wilted.
- Add the drained egg noodles and sauce to the pan and toss to coat, until all the sauce is absorbed. Return the prawns to the wok with the beansprouts and mix well to combine.
- Transfer the mie goreng to a plate, then sprinkle with fried shallots. Top with a fried egg (if using), sliced chilli, spring onion and serve.
