COOKING ON THE CHEAP SIDE #2: FRIED NOODLE WITH BEEF


This is the total cost of the meal for 2: 3 pieces of dried noodle (99¢), 160 gm. chuck beef ($1.60), ½ onion (10¢), 1 clove garlic (5¢), 1 stalk green onion (30¢).

The cooking method is similar to this.
The only thing I'm not used to using the electric stove is the temperature control; it doesn't get to where and when I want it. That's why the sauce came out thicker. I didn't want to fiddle with it farther because the meat might be over-cooked by the time I was through with it.

The stir-fried noodles is exactly the one served in Cantonese Rest. Noodles kind of fried, with topping, then glaze....slowly drips into the noodles...all the ingredients become one whole dish....

KongKay....does it mean " 公鸡" in Hokkien?

Kong-Kay said...

KONG is "speak", and KAY is "additionally" in Hokkien; together they mean "talking rubbish" - unnecessarily. or "chiang-tuoh"

ABOUT THIS BLOG

As the name implies, it's all about nothing! Kongkaying is like grasping in the air - more like hot air with occasional fartulence. Hopefully, something aromatic will come out of it! If not...

May the Farce be With You!
