Mamak Mee Goreng is a very popular Malaysian street food dish. The fried noodles are bursting with bold flavors, combining influences from Indian and Chinese cuisines.

After pre-cooking some potato and boiled eggs, the whole dish can be thrown together in a matter of minutes. What's more, many of the ingredients are store cupboard staples in the home cooks kitchen, so it can be a great option when you need to put together a meal last minute and you can be flexible with many of the stir fry ingredients, so feel free to experiment with different proteins and vegetables.

This dish makes a satisfying meal for dinner but also works really well as a meal prepped lunch to take into the office with you. Either way, you're sure to love the balance between sweet and savory flavours!

Bringing the flavours of the streets of Malaysia to your kitchen!

Chicken and potato is cooked in a warm curry powder to take on the flavour and give a beautiful yellow colour.

It is then cooked in a rich sweet sauce which is simmered until thick and glossy.

Finally, noodles, beansprouts and juicy prawns are stirred in and warmed through.
