This dish is well known as MIE AYAM in Indonesian. I don’t know how to translate it into English. The closest name I could think of is CHICKEN NOODLE SOUP. Anyway this name “Chicken noodle soup” is just to give a picture of what kind of food is “Mie ayam”.
One thing I realize is that it feels good to be back home here in the State. Here in my house, I can do whatever I want in my kitchen without worry of being messy after cooking and most importantly, I know everything in my kitchen. However, the sad part of being backed home is I miss so much of Indonesian food.
Most of Indonesian foods that I want to make are very hard to cook. Mainly because it is hard to find the ingredients. But this afternoon I made MIE AYAM (Mie = noodle, Ayam = chicken). The ingredient was very easy to find. I bought them from Wegmans, a local groceries store, here. Mie ayam is very easy to cook and my son loves it very much!
What you need:
Boneless chicken
Any kind of mushrooms (finely chopped)
Dried noodle
Bean sprout
Bok Choy
1 tablespoon of dark soy sauce
1 tablespoon of sesame oil
2 tablespoons of oyster sauce
Pinch of salt
1 green onion (finely chopped)
3 garlics (finely chopped)
Direction:
Boil boneless chicken in a medium pot until it is cooked. Take the chicken out and cut or shred it finely but leave the broth in the pot for the soup. Add 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of sesame oil and pint of salt to bring a nice flavour for the broth.
In the other pan put a little bit of cooking oil then fry garlic until it is slightly brown. Add shredded chicken and chopped mushrooms. Put 2 tablespoons of oyster sauce and a little bit of water and salt. Bring them to boil. Set aside.
Boil water in the other pan and add dried noodles then cook for about 5 minutes or until noodle are cooked. Add Bok choy and bean sprouts and cook them again for 2 minutes. When all is done, pour out the water.
Serving suggestion:
Put cooked noodles and vegetables in a bowl, top it with mushrooms and shredded chicken and chopped green onions. Pour with chicken broth and it is ready to be served.
