Bami Goreng – A recipe

This is a tasty and easy-to-make Indonesian dish. Delicious with an ice-cold beer, and to be eaten with fork and spoon a la Indonesian.

What you need (for four people) :

300 gr. egg noodles
1 garlic clove
1 tablespoon crushed chillies
1 tablespoon crushed coriander
3.5 cm piece root ginger
½ lt vegetable broth
olive oil
soy sauce
2 spring onions
1 small red pepper
200 gr. skinned chicken breast
120 gr. peeled prawns
2 eggs

How you do it:

First of all prepare a quick and flat omelette. Once it's done it's done, and you don't need to multitask unnecessarily!

Blend garlic, ginger, spring onions, chillies and coriander to a paste. Stir-fry in a little oil in a hot wok. Add the chopped pepper, the peeled prawns and the chicken, after you have diced and poached it for 5-7 minutes. Also add two scarce ladles of the water in which you poached the chicken and let simmer vivaciously until it thickens, having care to mix well quite frequently.

Heat some water and as soon as it starts boiling switch off the heat and throw in the noodles, separate them with a plastic spoon and let in the water with the lid on for 3-4 minutes. Rinse them and pour them in the wok. Add soy sauce and the omelette cut in thin strips and keep stirring until all flavours are blend.
