Рецепт Lor Mee
Lor Mee is a noodle dish found in Malaysia and Singapore where thick yellow noodles are served in a very starchy gravy alongside other ingredients such as ngo hiang, fish cake or balls, fried meat dumplings, half a boiled egg and slices of pork belly to name some. This is usually found on hawker stalls and it is sometimes with chilli sauce, fresh red chillies and black vinegar on the side. Like any noodle dishes in South East Asia this is Chinese inspired and usually brought over by the Hokkiens into the neighbouring regions, if you follow this blog closely or if you are a Filipino you will notice that this looks something similar to the a noodle dish I had posted before, the Lomi. The name even sounds the same and this is because it has the same roots which are the Hokkiens, both dish are a closely related and the only difference is the flavour of the starchy soup, chillies and vegetables used.
