Penang Prawn Mee Noodles Soup

Amazing Prawn Mee Noodles Soup that I enjoy over and over again. Never throw away the peeled off shells from the prawns. Collect them and freeze them for making the shell broth. Recipe is from Laurens Kitchen ( click Lauren Kitchen ) to get the steps on how to make this delicious Prawn Mee /Hokkien Mee.

The chilli paste is delicious. I will not eat out for this again coz this homecooked one is legit. Thank you Lauren for sharing your recipe.

Enjoy!

Sotong Masak Lemak Chilli Padi

I love Malaysian Cuisine especially Masak Lemak kind of dishes. I have been craving for this dish Sotong Masak Lemak Chilli Padi for almost a week but I couldn't get the sotong/ squid from the wet market then, but this morning we had early breakfast so we managed to get to the market early and lug back a kg of very fresh ones for a very affordable price of rm35 per kg. 

I cooked half portion of the one kg of Squid/Sotong  and the rest will sit in the freezer for another dish. Yours truly was very happy...finally get to cook this dish for early dinner. We were hungry coz we had early breakfast  🤭

This is my favourite dish..anything seafood I like! 😜

Very appetising dish, cukup pedas,  cukup masam and cukup lemak in Malay language. Meaning in English, it means enough heat, enough sourness and enough creaminess!
