Mee Calong

It's been a while since the last time I've posted a recipe here, isnt it. It's not that my dapor tak berasap but then there are other more interesting stories to share rather than my boring recipes. Anyway, today I'm gonna share the recipe for one of the special dish which can only be found in the East Coast........Mee Calong.

Sedap weiii mee ni.....sebab byk ikan...akak kan kucing siam - love fish very, very much. That's how an east coasters are - we love fish so much.....semua menda kita org nak letak ikan. Karipap inti ikan.....pulut panggang inti ikan.....bubur lambok letak ikan.....pendek kata kalau kek tu boleh letak ikan pun, kita org buat jugak.....wakawaka.

Mee Calong

Bahan2 nya

4 ekor ikan kembung, diambil isinya saja & dikisar halus

1 camb tepung jagung

Garam & lada sulah sesedap rasa

- Bahan2 di atas dicampurkan together-gether

- Then di bulat2kan cam fishball ( memang fishball punnnnn )

Bahan2 Lain

Mihun - dicelur

1 camb lada hitam }

4 biji bawang merah } ditumbuk halus

1 biji bawang putih }

1 inci halia, dititik

3-4 pokok sawi minyak*

2 keping dada ayam

Cara2 Pembuatannya

- Dada ayam direbus dengan api kecil hingga masak - simpan rebusan ayam

- Carik2 isi ayam tu - cam nak buat soto tu la.

- Tumis lada hitam (yg telah ditumbuk dgn bwg merah & bwg putih) dgn halia smpai naik bau

- Masukkan air rebusan ayam tadi. Tambah air biasa kalau tak cukup.

- Setelah menggelegak, masukkan fishball tadi.

- Bila fishball tu dah timbul, kira dah masak la tu (cam buat buah melaka la pulak yer)

- Then masukkan sawi, masak hingga sawi layu.

- That's it ! Easy peasy.....

- Nak makan kalu.....letak mihun, letak isi ayam tadi & letak kuah.

- Kalau nak pedas, buat sambal kicap ( resepi carik sendiri arrrr....)

* Sawi ni ada 2 jenis (atau "2 bangsa" kalau ikut cakap org Pahang....hidup Pahanggggg). Jenis yg pertama tu daunnya lebar sikit & it's cheaper. The other type, their leaves are greener & smaller - a bit more expensive than the first one but it certainly tastes better - much better actually. Kedai2 makan selalunya guna yg murah tu la....ye lah, nak untung lebeyyy kan.

Ok, guys. Hope you'll like this recipe as much as I do. One thing about this noodle - never use the pre-prepared fishballs. It wont be the same & you cant call it Mee Calong anymore ! Jangan ngelat......nanti daulat !!!
