Mee Bandung with Dessa

Last nite dinner...
400gm small lamb leg/400gm of beef with bones(wash/clean) boil into 1.5litre of water on slow fire till tender.. (i will keep the pot in the fridge overnite to let the fat hardened on the surface and scoop away)

Meanwhile i will cut the meat into slices and leave aside. ** Leave the stock(1.5litre) on slow fire and let simmers hot. If you are not using the instant paste... you can try my recipe( see below)

Add in the instant Dessa mee bandung paste to the stock
I like the gravy to more spicy and i have added 2 tablespoon fresh cili paste, dash of black and white pepper and 1tablespoon of tomato sauce. Let it simmers hot and add in the cornflour that was provided in the packing...

Individual serving bowl:
Blanch the yellow noodle, cut chye sim vegetable, bean sprouts and arrange as shown in picture below.

Blanch the fresh prawn in the gravy till cook... and arrange the prawn and slice meat in the bowl.

1 cup of gravy into a small pan on medium fire and break 1 egg let it poached and transfer the poached egg into the serving bowl ....
add a generous amount of the mee bandung gravy and garnish with crispy fried onions.

Mmmm this is so tasty and rich in calorie too.
