Steps to make Singapore Hokkien Mee Recipe:
- For making homemade prawn stock: In a soup pot, add water, blanched pork bones, clams, and prawn shells.
- When water comes to a rapid boil, add squid and prawns; cook for 2 minutes and remove from pot.
- When cooled, peel the prawn shell (leaving the tail on); return the prawn heads and shells back to the soup pot.
- Slice the squid to thin rings.
- Continue simmering the stock for 40 minutes and strain the broth. Season the stock with fish sauce and dark soy sauce. Yields about 500ml of rich prawn stock.
- For making Hokkien Mee: Heat 1 tbsp oil in wok and add beaten egg. Scramble the egg quickly with a spatula until it is semi set.
- Add yellow noodles, rice vermicelli, bean sprouts, another tbsp of oil and 2 ladles of prawn stock. Stir fry on high heat for 1 minute.
- Push the wok contents to one side, add another 1 tbsp oil to the wok. Stir fry garlic and lard pieces for 15 seconds.
- Add chives, mix everything together, add 2 more ladles of stock and cover with lid to simmer/braise for 3 mins.
- Turn off the heat. Ladle the remaining stock over the cooked noodles. Return the prepared prawns and squid into the hot wok and mix in evenly with the noodles.
- Divide and portion to four serving plates. Serve each plate with a cut lime and some sambal at the side.
- PS: Some Hokkien mee is served with pork belly as well. Par-boil a piece of pork belly together with the soup stock. Slice to smaller pieces when cooled and add them to the wok when stir-frying the Hokkien noodles.
Cover and simmer on low heat for half an hour. Skim surface of the stock as necessary, and continue simmering over low heat.
