Homecooked Penang Char Kuew Teow

Ahem.


Look at that marvelous Char Kuey Teow.  Yes I cooked it.

*smug face*

Been trying to make CKT before, using various recipes from the net. They all ended up tasting like the regular fried kuey teow.

Now I know the secret to making hawker-style Char Kuew Teow at home.   

This. 


Syah Flavor Char Kuew Teow Sauce. 


Was actually looking for a different brand of sauce. Kedah-based Otaku CKT sauce to be exact. So hard to find it in Selangor.

While looking for it in Pasar Borong Seri kembangan, I found Syah's instead. Thank you Pasaraya Sri Ternak. Always my go-to for all things rare and local. #muahciked

How i made my CKT :

1 garlic- crushed
1 tbpn Cili Boh
1 tbsn Vege Oil
4 tbsp Syah Char Kuew Teow sauce
1 tbpn soy sauce
1 tbsn sugar 
5 prawns
1/2 cup water
1 egg
Pre-cooked cockles
Bean sprout
Chive
 Kuew teow (a hand full)

Methods:

1. On a very hot pan, fried garlic & chili boh with prawns  
2. Add in all the sauce, sugar & water
3. Add in kuew teow, cockles, beansprout, chive.
4. Break the egg.  Stir fry for 1 minute. Serve.

Verdict : H said I can open CKT stall. Should see the size of my nostril. Flaring real wide. If only he knew i got help from that Syah dude.  A definitely helpful sauce. Can also be used to fry the 'normal' Kuew Teow'
