Malaysian Fried Noodles
 Here’s a homemade version of the standard Malaysian hawker favourite.Mee goreng is of course best served hot off the pan, but it will tolerate standing around for a bit and being served at room temperature.Ingredients: Sauce: 1 tbsp light soy sauce (use Maggie) 1 tbsp dark soy sauce (use Maggie) 3 tbsp tomato ketchup(use Maggie) 3 tbsp water 1 tsp ground pepper
Blend finely: 5 fresh red chillies 4 large cloves garlic
3 pcs white tofu 1 medium-size potatoes ½ cup oil 1 onion, sliced thinly 2 small ripe tomatoes, cut into 4 parts 2 cups mustard greens (sawi), plucked into 5 cm lengths 1 ½ cups cabbage, shredded 1 cm thick 500 g fresh yellow wheat noodles 1 ½ cups bean sprouts
Garnish: 4 tbsp crisp, fried shallots 3 tbsp spring onion, sliced thinly 4 calamansi limes, halved Method Stir the sauce ingredients together in a bowl and set aside. Blend the chillies and garlic in a blender.
Peel potatoes and cut into halves lengthwise. Cover with water and boil for 10 – 12 minutes or until tender . Drain. Cut tofu into halves.
Heat oil in a wok and fry potatoes until golden brown. When cool enough to handle, cut crosswise into 0.5 cm slices. Now fry the tofu in the same oil until golden brown. Drain and when cool enough to handle, cut into 1 cm slices.
Leave 3 tbsp of the oil in the wok. Place wok over medium heat and fry the ground chilli and garlic mixture, stir continuously, until it is well cooked. Add the sliced onion, turn up the heat to high and add the tomatoes, potatoes and tofu. Fry for 2 – 3 minutes.
Stir in the mustard greens and cabbage and continue frying for a few more minutes. Add noodles and sauce mixture and continue frying until noodles are tender.
Push noodles to the edges of the wok to create a “well” in the middle of the pan. Drizzle 2 tsp of oil in this and crack in 2 eggs. Stir them around to scramble them and when the egg starts to set, combine with the noodles. Finally, add the beansprouts, fry on high heat for another 2 or 3 minutes and dish out onto a serving platter. Garnish the top with fried shallots, spring onion and calamansi limes.

On a lightly floured surface, roll out to an 18" by 30" rectangle. The dough can also be handmade. If you use regular yeast, you may want to let the rolls proof for 15-30 minutes after assembly). Filling In a small bowl, mix brown sugar and cinnamon. Spread the softened butter over the dough and evenly sprinkle on the sugar and cinnamon mixture. Starting at the long edge of the dough, roll up tightly. Mark the roll every 2 inches. With a thread cut the roll by placing the thread under the roll at your mark, crisscross over and pull to cut. Place rolls into greased 8" or 9" baking pans 2" apart. Cover and let rise in a warm, draft free place until almost double, approximately 1 hour. After rising, rolls should be touching each other and the sides of the pan. Bake at 350 degrees F. for 15 to 20 minutes, or until golden brown.

Tips On How To Cook Egg Pasta
Fresh egg pasta, especially home-made,cooks very much faster than dried pasta! Make sure everything is ready ( the sauce, serving dishes, etc..) before you start boiling egg pasta as there will be no time once the cooking starts, and egg pasta becomes soft and mushy very quickly. 1. Always cook in a large amount of rapidly boiling water. Use at least 5 cups of water to a quantity of pasta made with 115g/ 4oz/ 1 cup of flour. Salt the water as for dried pasta.
2. Drop the pasta into the boiling water all at once. stir gently to prevent the pasta sticking to itself or to the pan. Cook the pasta at a fast boil. 3. Freshly made pasta can be done as little as 15 second after the cooking water comes back to the boil. stuffed pasta takes a few minutes longer. Whwn done,tip the pasta into the colander and proceed as for dried pasta.
