Mee hoon kueh

This is one of my favorite soup base food. Been here for so long not easy to find this here till one day I saw Karen posted on this on FB. In my thoughts if Karen can cook this so can I, therefore start to ask around and finally this is what I came up with. You will never know that it is actually an easy meal to make. All you need is just ikan bilis stock then from there you can just marinate any meat and cook with the stock. With the marinated meat that is where you get the extra taste in the soup. As for me, I do not really like vegetable in my soup so you can add in as you like ok.
