Fried Flat Rice Noodle (Char Kway Teow)

Yum
 This is my kind of comfort food. The trick to cooking this is to cook it in quickly and with high heat. If you cook it too slowly, it’ll turn out dry, so be quick and try to use a well seasoned wok! As much as I love this sweet and savoury dish, I’m often put off by how greasy and sinful it is, the amount of lard involved in the making. I’d probably only allow myself 2 plates of char kway teow a year.
 
But now, I get to choose what I put in my char kway teow! No lard, less oil, and more vegetable! Yay to healthier comfort food! A lot of people like adding cockles in their char kway teow, but I personally do not know how to appreciate it’s unique taste. But please feel free to add them if you like. 🙂
