Hi Natty! Sorry I'm running late, Honey. I've been joining the congregational prayer at the mosque more frequently, so please expect me a little later than usual. How are you, by the way? I hope everything is awesome for you over there. You are MY girl, and I love you with all of my heart.
Would you like some fried noodles? Fried noodles are actually quite easy, if you wanted to try and make it. I can get fresh noodles over here because everybody uses noodles here, so I don't have to bother with dried noodles. The key to fried noodles is the sauce. Everybody who fries noodles has their own routine. The video above is OK, I guess. I personally wouldn't bother removing the heads and tails of bean sprouts, and I certainly wouldn't fry them up first. Today I started with chopped garlic, then I add my pickled soybeans. Oh no, my pickled soybeans went rancid! How is that even possible? It must be the protein in the beans. I hope my entire batch didn't get ruined, but I didn't have time to deal with it today. Next batch I'll put in a LOT of salt. So I skipped the soybeans and added water. Oh, the fire is medium high today. For the sauce, I put Mae Pranom tom yum paste in the water. I just happened to have a lot of it right now. It needs salt, so I added a teaspoon of anchovy bouillon. Then I chopped up some of my generic roast beef and put it in the water. Next, the noodles went in. This particular brand is a bit bitter, and the bitterness needs to be cooked out, so I left the whole mess alone on the fire while I cleaned the litter box. When I got back the noodle mix had dried up, so I turned down the fire and cracked an egg in there and mixed it up to thicken it up. I had already chopped up the scallions and green hot chilli peppers. This stuff goes in last after I switch off the fire, because it need to stay as raw as possible. If I had bean sprouts, they would go in last. It's a successful batch of fried noodles. Mae Pranom makes a good sauce, I didn't even need soy sauce. Want some?
