This recipe was submitted to Cook the Commonwealth by Norman Musa, an internationally recognised chef and promoter of Malaysian cuisine. If you enjoy cooking this, why not check out his new cookbook, “Bowlful: Fresh and vibrant dishes from Southeast Asia”. A typical breakfast or afternoon meal for Malaysians, this fried noodles can be cooked with chicken, like how I cooked mine, prawns, tofu or simply with only vegetables like fine beans and mushrooms.
