Noodle Kailan with Oyster Sauce

Noodle Kailan with Oyster Sauce

Another variant of Indonesian Chicken Noodle. Inspired by Mie Ayam recipe a la Indonesian-Chinese restaurant, I develop another recipe without kecap manis and replace it with fish sauce. Good for you who are keen of chicken noodle dishes but doesn't like kecap manis which tends to be sweet 😉
Have a try and enjoy your delicious chicken noodle ;-). Tipp: Make all ingredients double or triple if you want to cook in larger quantity

Instructions

  • Cook the noodles by adding to boiling water (until al dente) according to package directions and set to drain in a colander.

  • Discard the hard end of Kailan or Pak Choy, slice in smaller strips if necessary. Clean with cold water.
