Fried Fish Meat Bee Hoon Soup

Our family helper usually cooks the standard 3 dish 1 soup kinda dinner for the family, so when I take over the kitchen on the weekends, I try to abstain from the usual menu.  That is to give myself and the family members a break from the mundane menu list.  So, we had the Fried Fish Bee Hoon that particular Sunday evening. 


Ingredients:
- Snapper Fish (chopped into big cubes)
- Corn flour mixture (with water) + Salt
- 1 pack of Thick Bee Hoon (washed under tap and soaked 3 minutes in hot water.  Strain to dry)
- Long white cabbage + Chye Sim
- Ikan Bilis
- Condensed Milk
- Tomato (optional)


Steps:

1. Boil a pot of water to be used as broth.

2. Heat up the frying pan and fry the ikan bilis till crispy.  Set aside half to be used as garnishing.  Pour the other half and the oil residue into the pot of boiling water to boil for 1 hr.

3. While the soup is boiling, prepare to fry the fish meat.  Set the oil in high heat.  Coat the fish meat into the flour mixture and drop into the wok for deep frying.  Sieve and strain when fish meat turns golden brown.  (usually abt 8mins).

For one-serving only

4. Pour a bowl of broth (prepared earlier) into a small pot.  Let it boil before throwing in the thick bee-hoon.  As the broth starts to boil again, add in condense millk (about 2 tbsp) and give a quick stir.

5. Add in the veggies and fish meat last.

6. Ready to serve.  Add the ikan bilis as garnishing.



Have fun!

Happy mum
