I first heard about Kampua Mee from Rose of Rose' World, who mentioned it on her blog. It looked so good that I was itching for a taste. The other reason? I just love trying out new stuff.
Anyone can walk up to me and say that something's not delicious, but it will never thwart my plans to try it for myself. For me, taste is a personal thing. Some will like it, some will not.
Anyway, back to this delightful kampua mee which Rose was kind enough to send over so that I could have a taste. Thank you, Rose! ;)
Bang, bang, bang! The postman knocked loudly on my door late one evening, while I was mulling over what to cook for dinner. I was really excited to see the package. I had no idea what was inside, of course and tore it open as soon as I had signed off the mailing slip.
Look what I got:

Isn't it lovely? Each packet of noodle comes with two packs of seasoning. One of soy sauce and one of lard. L-a-r-deedah..you read right. And that's what makes this instant noodle so special. Well that, and the fact that this mee is sundried and free from preservatives.

I decided at that moment that this would be dinner. It's really simple to make. Boil the noodles in water until it is softened/cooked. Drain and stir in the seasoning. I added some extra ingredients, topping the noodles with fried minced pork and garlic. Then, it was garnished with slices of chili and spring onions. Makes it a little more vibrant.

Voila! Nice? Yes, hubs asked for more...more! I found it yummy and very different from the regular instant noodles we find in supermarkets.

If you're keen to try some for yourself, contact Rose. I'm just kidding!
You should really contact 'thekitchensibu' on Facebook. I believe they've worked something out for those residing in KL/Selangor.

DeleteI never eat this noodle. I'm curious how it tastes.
ReplyDeleteIt's a softer version of the springy noodles. Bland, until seasoning is added :)
