Express Penang Hokkien Mee

Aren't we lucky these days.. There are numerous products in the market which can help make cooking a cinch in the kitchen. There is really no excuse to say you don't know how to cook or you don't have time to cook. It just takes a little trip to the supermarket or specialty market to do a little research and come out with the best ingredients to keep in your pantry for rainy days. Some nights like tonight,  when I am not in the mood for an elaborate meal, ready pastes like this Penang Hokkien Mee paste is a real savior! Yes, to make yourself is easy enough.. blend together some dried chillies, red onions, garlic, lemon grass and dried shrimp then fry till fragrant and seasoned with a little sugar and salt before adding water. But hey...why bother when you can have all of that done for you! All you have to do is Mix the paste with water and bring to boil. For the noodles and condiments, its really up to your imagination and whim and fancy. Blanche some yellow noodle, prawns, and greens. Lay them over a bed of Romaine lettuce and pour the soup over . You can also add bean sprout, boiled eggs, fried tofu and fish cakes if you like. This is my how my Express Penang Hokkien Mee looks like....

 Thanks to this wonderful product ....
