Mun mien is an interesting Foochow noodle dish. The noodles are first fried with garlic and some oil. This is then taken out of the kuali. Next a selection of sliced meat, fish, fresh prawns and some pork crackles would be fried together until cooked with garlic. Soya sauce and some corn flour would be added to thicken the sauce.
the cooked noodles would be thrown in with some greens for a second stir fry. Once the vegetables are wilted, some rice wine and water would be added to give the noodles a good sauce. The noodles would then be allowed to cook through to let the noodles absorb almost all the sauce.
Minqing and Fuqing Foochows are good at cooking mun mien.
when I was young I enjoyed eating mun mien after the Chinese new year. The mun mien became better and better with each reheating.
