Vegetarian Mee Goreng

I love noodles and keep on experimenting with noodles from different cuisines. “Mee/Mi Goreng” is Malaysian Fried Noodles. Indonesians call it as “Mie Goreng”. It is popular in Malaysia, Indonesia and Singapore. These fried noodles are similar to the Chinese Chow Mein and Japanese Yakisoba. I fell in love with Mee Goreng after tasting it from a restaurant. I tried instant varieties of Mee Goreng, Chow Mein and Yakisoba, and they were pretty ok but nowhere near in taste to the restaurant varieties. Mee Goreng is made by stir frying crispy Yellow Noodles. Some special ingredients used for making Mee Goreng are shallots, garlic, sweet soy sauce (Kecap Manis) and tomatoes. The additon of all these ingredients gives it a sweet, tangy and spicy taste.

A few days ago, I made Vegetable Mee Goreng for lunch with whatever ingredients I had with me. I didn’t have Yellow Noodles. Instead, I used some Vietnamese Vegetarian Noodles without egg. I didn’t have Sweet Soy Sauce. So I used little sugar along with ordinary Soy Sauce. Usually, dark soy sauces are sweet whereas the Light ones are salty.
