singapore fried noodles

I'm staying in Singapore now for almost a year, yet it is only recently that I wanted to try eating at Kopitiams or ordering local foods at hawker stalls for takeaway. I kind of regret, since Singapore has fantastic foods to chow. So the past few months, we stay away from fastfood chains.

Anyway, there's this dish that I became addicted to. Aside from the food smelling like North Park back home, it's delicious, too. North Park delicious.

Singapore fried noodles...my comfort food.


So here's how the uncle, who sells this fried noodles, cooked it.

He pour oil into the wok, when the oil was hot enough, he cracked one egg then tossed in the prepared (meaning, cut, julienned or shredded) red bell pepper, carrots , cabbage, dried shrimps, and some hotdogs into the wok. With a few tosses here and there, he added the rice vermicelli and a prepared stock. I

In 2 or 3 minutes, he placed it in a microwavable container and handed it to me.

Easy, eh?

I didn't see him placed any seasoning. Perhaps the prepared stock or broth had been seasoned with salt, pepper and brown sugar.

Oh, he placed a slice of calamansi and slices of fresh green chillis, too.
