Another chicken to make simple food so don't get bored ok, this time, I just use chicken meat, onion, garlic and for the spices are salt, pepper, sweet soy sauce, dark mushroom sauce and MSG. Yup, that's all, very simple and I'm sure you can cook easily. Why I use chicken meat?? cause it's cheap and good protein inside chicken meat LOL. The important thing is chicken meat is very easy to find at any supermarket or traditional market, chicken meat is very easy to cook and we can create a lot of easy and simple food that's why I love chicken meat.

Can we use a different meat besides chicken?? YES, it's optional, just suit your taste. You can use pork, beef, lamb but don't use seafood cause it's not a good match with sweet soy sauce. If I cook seafood I prefer the salty and savory taste and say NO to sweet. Talk about the seafood you guys could see my previous recipe here and just click it Stir Fried Pocai With Prawns . But for now, forget about seafood we should go back to Chicken Sweet Soy Sauce Lol. Like the title of this recipe, I will use stir-fry method to cook this dishes, mostly I like to use stir-fry method from my all cooking recipe, I don't know why but my opinion is causing stir-fry method is very simple and quick, no wasting time, the result also good. In this dishes I make a lot of sweet soy sauce gravy cause my little girl like it very much, so she asks me to make a lot of gravy. You can make it dry if you like, there are plus and minus if you choose to make it dry or a lot of gravy. If it's dry you will get the maximum flavor from the stir-fry method instead a lot of gravy, with a lot of gravy you could eat this dishes with plain porridge too, so it's depends on what style of cooking do you like, your decision in your hand.

Noodles With Hot Sauce

NOODLES WITH HOT SAUCE

"Hmmm....."

I'm sure you have all been eating noodles and on average you will definitely like to eat noodles.
How do you cook a varied menu of noodles ? bored with just simply fried ? if I prefer cooked with simply fries method and combined with gravy.

Because the weather is rainy and cold here, I like to create something hot and spicy but not soup.
So I decided to make Noodles With Hot Sauce, this is the original recipe from me and I developed this recipe from ifumie recipe and mie singapore.

This recipe is very easy to make although the ingredients seem a lot and cooking directions and methods you read below this page seem quite complicated, actually it's not complicated, it is because my fault, I get confused when typing to explain the methods and directions of cooking but I'm sure you guys would understand what i mean, cause you all are the senior chef. Thumbs up for that.


Types of noodles that i use for this dish is a fresh egg noodles not dry egg noodles. But if you prefer dry egg noodles then it's okay to use it, because it's just a matter of taste only and not affect the final result of cooking.


I prefer "freedom" mindset in cooking and as long as it is still in the correct path, I'm sure you will create something awesome. And I always accept criticism gracefully when people taste a cuisine that I've made, although the criticism is bad or good so that we can correct the wrong and make something better. Do you agree with me food lovers ??
