Mee Hoon Kueh (Handmade Noodles)

I am missing the bee hoon kueh (handmade noodles) that I had done weeks back. It was my first attempt and I love it so much. Thick broth with "bouncy and chewy" kueh.

Hubby had 2 bowls and even my 2 princes asked for more. Shall do it soon again!

Ingredients for the Kueh:
500g Plain Flour
200g Corn Flour
1 tsp Salt
Some Pepper
Water (did not do a measure of it, but enough to make the dough just nice and tender)

Ingredients for the Soup:
15 pieces of Chinese Mushroom (Shitake Mushroom) - Soak and cut off the stems, then cut into small pieces
Fried Shallots
50g Dried Mermaid Fish
50g Dried Bian Yu (cannot remember the Eng name)
3 Pork Big Bones
200g Spare Ribs
2 tbsp Sesame Oil
1 tsp Salt
Some Pepper
1 tbsp Shao Xing Wine

Ingredients (Rest of them):
1 Bunch of Cai Xin
Hard Boiled Eggs (Optional)
Minced Pork (Marinated with recipe below)

Marinate for Minced Pork (Marinate for 30mins):
1 tbsp Oyster Sauce
1 tbsp Sesame Oil
Dash of Salt
Dash of Pepper
1 tbsp Corn Flour

Method:
A) Preparing the Kueh
1) Sieve both Corn Flour and Plain Flour with Salt and Pepper
2) Mix in water to form a dough and leave it to rest for 30mins
3) Split into small pieces and roll each piece flat (this is to prepare to tear-off to bite size pieces to cook)

B) Preparing the Broth
1) Blanch the Pork Bones and Spare Ribs
2) Drain to remove the grey foam and fill up with water to boil them again
3) Fried the Shallots till light brown and dish up
4) Use the same wok with the Shallots Oil, fry Mermaid Fish and Bian Yu till golden brown
5) Pour all Mermaid Fish, Bian Yu with the Oil in wok into the broth to boil
6) Add the Mushrooms, Cai Xin and Minced Pork in small balls after 30mins or an hour (depends on preference)

Preparing to Serve:
1) Dough: Tear the dough into bite-sizes and put into the broth
2) Dish them up and add Fried Shallots on them with a Hard Boiled Egg and Serve

Actually it can be a even simpler version. Just that I love my soup to be full of flavour and thick therefore there are so many ingredients.
