Posted by: Julia in

Ingredients :

  • 1 large onion (cut into rings)
  • Cooking oil
  • 40 ml hot water
Sambal (pound together) :
  • 4 to 8 red chillis (ensure seeds are completely crushed during pounding)
  • 6 cloves garlic
  • 4 cloves shallots
Seasoning :
  • Salt and sugar to taste
Directions :
  1. Heat 2 tablespoons of cooking oil and fry ikan bilis till crisp. Remove ikan bilis and discard oil.Heat oil 2 tablespoons of cooking oil and saute sambal ingredients on medium heat till aromatic and semi-brown. Set aside.
  2. Next, heat up 2 teaspoons of cooking oil in wok and saute onions till beginning to limp. Add sambal and continue to stir briskly for 15 to 30 seconds. Add tang hoon and water and bring water to boil. Let the tang hoon cook for not more than 1 minute whilst you add seasoning. The water should be reduced by now.

  4. Serve with white rice.
