Make Chinese Shrimp & Chicken Noodles in 10 Mins! Hokkien Mee 福建面 Singapore Zi Char Noodle Recipe

Roland and I have been eating Hokkien noodles for as long as we can remember. This noodle dish is my personal favourite, and I always order it at zi char stalls when we go for a single portion meal. This dish appeals to me because I am obsessed with brown sauce-based foods. I just can't seem to stay away from them. You should be able to tell by the number of brown-looking dishes on our channel. LOL!

Zi char is a uniquely Singaporean dining term derived from the Hokkien dialect. Among Singaporean and Malaysian Chinese, Hokkien is the most common dialect. Roland's parents are Hokkien, as is my mother. In Chinese, Zi Char or Tze char is written as 煮 for cooking and 炒 for frying. This term is used to describe a cook-to-order food stall that is usually located in coffee shops. A zi char stall serves a diverse selection of well-balanced and reasonably priced dishes based primarily on Singaporean Chinese cuisine with Malay, Indian, and Peranakan influence.

Hokkien Mee or Hokkien Noodle is a popular Asian ingredient. The noodles are fresh and slightly chewy, made from wheat flour and egg yolk. Hokkien noodles can be used to make noodle soup and stir fried noodles. You can also toss them with some sauce and call it a meal. Zi Char Hokkien Mee, which originated from China's Fujian province, is a popular dish in Malaysia and Singapore. Hokkien noodles are braised in sauce and typically served with a combination of pork, prawns, and vegetables.
