Claypot Ee Mein in Soup (Fried Egg Noodle)

Recently I bought a pack of fried egg noodle (Ee mein) from Asian market in NYC.These Ee mein was made in Malaysia.At first I was skeptical about the quality,afraid it might smell and taste stale so I just get one pack which contains of 5 pieces "Ee mein". To my surprised this Ee mein is really great and flavourful!! We (my daughter and me) finished the whole package within 3 days!! I regretted not get more than 1 package..Never mind,there always next trip!! I make sure my next trip to Asian market I must get few more 2 or 3 packages of this Ee mein!! Well,there are 2 way to cook this Ee mien:in hot plate or in claypot..For now I just used claypot coz I don't have hot plate..If you have chance to get this Ee mien,give a try,it's really taste good cooked in clear soup!!






Ingredients:
2 piece of Ee mein(fried egg noodle)
1 1/2 cups chicken stock,plus extra if you like soupy or 1 cube chicken bouillon if you don't have chicken stock
2 cup water if you're using chicken bouillon
1 tsp or few dash ground white pepper powder
6-7 florets broccoli
1 small piece boneless chicken,sliced + corn starch+1 tbsp soy sauce+2 tbsp cold water,mix well
3-4 small shrimp,shelled and clean
1/2 piece of fish cake,sliced
1 egg
salt to taste
2 tbsp sesame oil
2 tbsp fried lard+fried garlic or fried shallot*optional*
Method:
1:Prepare a medium size claypot with chicken stock or water at medium high heat.If you use water add in chicken bouillon cube into it as well.
2:When the stock is rolling boil,place the marinated chicken,broccoli and fish cake in the claypot for 1-2 minutes.Then place Ee mein (fried egg noodle) and shrimp in the hot bubble soup,follow by a egg on the side.
3:Increase heat to high,add in ground white,salt,sesame oil and fried garlic and fried lard on the top.When the soup bubbly boil again,shut off the heat or remove from heat immediately.
4:Serve hot/warm with cut red or green pepper or chili sauce on side.
Note:*this is not an advertorial post* just to show you the "Ee mein" I'm talking about coz it's really good!!
