Fried Bee Hoon with Dried Shrimps

This is one of the simple dishes that I made on my daughter's recent birthday. Fried Bee Hoon or some called it Mee Hoon. It is vermicelli thin noodles which you can get at any Asian store. Do try this simple recipe. As always, I like to keep my recipes simple and straight to the point. Enjoy!







Ingredients
1 packet or vermicelli noodles (soak in warm water until 3/4 soft)
500 gm fresh prawns, cleaned
Sweet soy sauce
Salty soy sauce
Salt and pepper, to taste
Oil
2 cups prawn stock

Garnishing
Spring onions, chopped
Coriander leaves, chopped
1 egg (beaten, fry and roll before cutting into thin slices)
1 fresh red chillies, thinly cut
fried onions

Blended items
3 garlic
3 big onions
500 gm dried shrimps

Methods
1.  In a hot wok, pour in some oil. Put in the blended items and stir until they turn aromatic.

2. After that, add in the fresh prawns and stir well for a few seconds before pouring in the prawn stock.

3. Let the stock bubbles before putting salt and pepper to taste. You can also add some soy sauce at the same time.

4. Stir for a while before putting in the vermicelli rice noodles. Stir the noodles well until all are coated with the ingredients.

5. You can reduce the heat to avoid burning. Then add in the coriander leaves and spring onions. Mix all together.

6. When all is mixed well, change the heat to medium and mix all until the noodles are soften.

7. Put the noodles in the serving dish before garnishing it with some leftover coriander leaves, spring onions, fried onions, eggs and fresh sliced red chilli.
