Easy 10 minutes Fried Noodles

-
I was thinking about what to eat for dinner when I came across this recipe. I love eating noodles. I always keep dried instant noodles at home in case I feel like eating it. This recipe is simple and humble but fulfilling. Some of the ingredients are adjustable, depending on what ingredients you have at home. 

I like my fried noodle to has a little sweet taste and a little oily. It can be spicy caused by the chili or white pepper or black pepper. And some vegetables such as carrot and corn may add some sweet taste to the fried noodle. The addition of chicken or beef may also add flavor to it. But here I am just adding egg in it. The recipe is as below.

Malay/English I was cooking fish curry when my mom asked me to cook this green vegetable. It was just recently my family eat this vegetable. It looks like lettuce to me. I even imagine to eat it raw in my sandwich. The packaging wrote Yau Mark Tam. Yau mark tam? A vegetable from China I guess. Then I thought I would just sauté it with anchovies. And today I searched about yau mark tam in the internet and... it is actually romaine lettuce... hahaha... But sauteed romaine lettuce is also delicious. So let's look at the recipe. Ready in 15 minutes Ingredients 1 head of romaine lettuce or yau mak tam 2 shallots (sliced) 2 cloves garlic (sliced) 1 tablespoon anchovies 1 tablespoon oyster sauce 3 tablespoon cooking oil Some drops of white vinegar Salt to taste Methods Heat cooking oil in a pan.

The toum is a new addition to this sandwich to give more flavor to it.  Ingredients 1 egg 1/4 cup milk 1/2 cup 1 cup spinach (I use Brazilian Spinach) Toum Mayonnaise Margerine or butter 2 slices of bread A pinch of salt White pepper powder Methods Beat the egg in a bowl until egg white and egg yolk mixed.  Add in some salt, milk and white pepper.  Cook on the low heat. Put scrambled egg aside. Spread margarine or butter on one side of the bread. Toast the bread on the pan. Cook the buttered side until golden. Boil the spinach in 1/3 cup of water until tender. You can also add it raw.  Spread some mayonnaise on one of the bread. Spread toum on another bread. Spread scrambled egg on one if the bread, followed by the spinach.  Then put another bread with toum spread on top of it. Enjoy.

Lempeng (lamp-eng) or flat pancake is our regular meal for breakfast. It is easy to make, uses simple ingredients and delicious. The ingredients are all purpose flour, egg, salt, margarine and water. It is cooked in a round and flat shape but usually the texture differs according to personal preference. Some people loves it thick and soft. Some other loves it thin and soft. Some loves the surface to be crunchy but soft in the middle. I prefer the third version of lempeng. Lempeng is usually eaten with granulated sugar, condensed milk and syrups. The basic lempeng is plain in flavor, making it suitable to be eaten with condiments. I like it with curry. It is so delicious when eaten together until I usually add one more piece in my plate. =) Ready in 15 to 30 minutes. For 5 servings Ingredients 3 cups all purpose flour 1 egg 1 teaspoon salt 1 to 2 tablespoons margarine Water Methods Mix all the ingredients together except water. It is okay if the marg
