Hello my friends,
A
thousand apologies! I have been super busy and could not find the time to update my
blog. Nevertheless, here I am again with another recipe! Since some of my friends have been requesting me to upload a recipe for fried bee
hoon, I shall do just that!
Having used Thermomix for 3 years now, I normally cook without weighing the ingredients and seasoning first and use my 'gut feel' instead. For people who seldom cook or have never cooked before, this might be a bit of a challenge at first (e.g. How much salt and pepper to add or how much vegetables to put).
Hence, I will put some quantity to each ingredient here. However, these quantities are just a rough guideline. Taste is a personal thing and it all depends on your preference on how salty/oily, how much vegetables you prefer. I normally prefer my fried bee hoon with 3/4 of the dish being vegetables and 1/4 being bee hoon. Some might prefer it the other way around. Whatever the case, it all depends on your personal preference and you can adjust the ingredients accordingly. So have some fun with it!
