Mee Hailam


The kids woke up late today. They had late breakfast. When lunch came, they didn't eat that much. And at about 4pm, they were hungry again. My son requested for mee hailam. It's noodle with soy sauce based. The most important thing is that it's simple to make.

Smash 2 cloves of garlic, fry in a tablespoon of oil, then add 1 cup of sliced chicken. Add 3-4 cups of water. Put in 2 tablespoons of pepper. Let it simmer for 10-15 minutes. Then add soy sauce. I used 2 types of soy sauce - 1/2 cups of sweet soy sauce and 1/4 cups of the salty type. I know, it sounded like too much soy sauce. Use half of the portions first and have a taste then go from there. After it boils, put in the other ingredients. I used squid, shrimps and some vegetables. And then put in the noodle. Put in the leafy vegetable after this. Wait for about 2-3 minutes, until you see the shrimp curls. When the shrimp is cooked, it's done.

Then call your kids!
