Instructions
For the Noodles
- Before you begin, you need to loosen your fresh ho fun noodles. Separate each strand. If you don’t do this, you may find that your noodles turn out gluey.
- Heat 4 tablespoons cooking oil in a wok or deep frying pan over medium to high heat. Add the noodles, light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, and water, and saute for 1 to 2 minutes, until the noodles are slightly crisp in some parts. Turn off heat, remove from wok and set aside in a large serving plate.
For the Thickener
- Combine all ingredients in a medium to large sized jug. Taste for seasoning. Add more light soy sauce or salt if desired. Set aside.
For the Sauce
- Heat 2 tablespoons of cooking oil in a wok or deep frying pan and saute the garlic until fragrant. This should only take about half a minute. Then add the shrimp and fish balls. Fry for 2 to 3 minutes or until the shrimp start to change color.
- Add the choy sum and continue to cook until the vegetable softens.
- Mix through the prepared thickener. Bring the liquid to a boil. Once at a boil, turn off heat, and pour sauce over fried noodles. Serve.
Notes
- If you don’t have fish balls or fish cakes you could use extra shrimp or scallops instead.
