Mee Rebus is one of the many noodles dishes popular in Malaysia.It is one of my favorite hawker food.It is yellow noodles served with a thick spicy potato-based gravy and garnished with a hard-boiled egg, spring onions, bean sprouts, fried shallots,fried shrimp biscuit, tau kwa (dried/ fried beancurd) and lime juice.It requires a lot of efforts to prepare as you have to peel,smash and boil the potatoes.The hardest part is to fry the shrimp biscuit because you have to fry them one by one slowly on a pan with a little bit of oil to make sure they do not change their shape when you deep fry them in a wok.Fried shrimp biscuit is a must for Chinese Style Mee Rebus as it differentiate it with Indian Mee Rebus and Malay Mee Rebus.Since it is my favorite food,my mum will cook it whenever i'm back at home during Semester Break.
