When I was younger, I used bring my group of poly classmates to Seremban, a small town in Malaysia to eat a dish called "Claypot Rat Noodle" or in cantonese we called it "Sa Po Lou Shu Fen".
Rat Noodle or Lou Shu Fen which also knowns as Mee Tai Mak in Singapore its a type of noodle which looks like a rat tail but shorter and hence the name. Its does sounds kinda disgusting if you are listening it for the first time in your life but I can guarantee you that it doesn't taste anywhere close to a taste of a rat (tho I never tasted a rat before but I assume its disgusting! =P)
Recently my classmates been telling me that they miss the dish and they never forgot the wonderful taste of that dish even tho it has been like more than 10 years and sometimes I even wonder if the shop its still open for business. So, I decided to try my hands in making this dish and hopefully I can cook it myself and let them rekindle that wonderful taste that they have been missing.
Ingredients:
1 packet of Lou Shu Fen/Rat Noodle
4 cloves of Garlic
Green Onions for garnishing
5 prawns (de-viens and cut to tiny pieces)
Minced meat
1 slices of salted fish
3 chilli padi (if you like it spicy)
1 bowl of chicken stock (180ml)
Any type of Green Vegetable
Seasoning for minced meat:
1 tsp of Rice wine
2 tsp of Oyster sauce
1 tsp of Sesame Oil
A pinch of Pepper
Instructions:
1. Stir fry garlic and salted fish till fragrant
2. Add in marinated minced meat and fry till meat are cooked
3. Add in prawns
4. Scoop up minced meat and prawns and set aside
5. Heat up some oil and fry Lou Shu Fen
6. Add in the minced meat and prawns and stir fry together
7. Add in chicken stock and let it simmer till it thickens
8. Add in a pinch of pepper
9. Add in your greens
10. Once the gravy thickens, its ready to serve!
11. Garnish with green onions, chilli padi and a little soya sauce
