Hokkien mee, commonly known as fried Hokkien prawn noodles, is a famous Singaporean dish made with a combination of yellow noodles and thin or thick rice vermicelli cooked in a rich prawn stock. The dish is then served with sambal chilli and calamansi on the side. While no one knows the exact origins of this dish, we are certain that this rendition of Hokkien mee is authentically Singaporean. Hokkien mee is simple to make. The prawn stock is what gives the dish its flavour, so make sure you use enough prawn heads to produce the stock. You can easily accumulate the prawn heads left over from other dishes. We normally just put the heads in bags (no need to wash them) and freeze them until we have enough for a good prawn stock. Prawn shells are not as flavourful as prawn heads, but they can be added to your collection if you don't think you'll be able to accumulate enough of the heads. Although the sambal chilli and calamansi juice cut through the richness of the lunch, don't panic if you don't have them. Your dish will be just as wonderful without them. Happy cooking!
