I was craving for hawker food recently. Especially what I am cooking today. Fish head noodles soup 鱼头米粉 (Yu Tao Mai Fun) is a popular hawker food in Malaysia. It is believed to have originated from the Teochews. I was mentioning Hokkein but actually it is more Teochew as I suddenly remember the pickled plum and salted vegetable are very common ingredients for Teochew's dishes, especially steamed fish. It is one of my favourite fish soups with noodles. Here this is my first time trying to cook this. I must say I love it. My kids too. I am proud of myself. LOL!
Ingredients for 10 pax:
. 2 kgs grouper fish head, cut into big pieces. U can use any big fish head
. 2 pcs dried fish
. 2 pack thick rice noodles
. 2 pcs pickled mustard/salted veggies, cut into long strips
. 200 g young ginger, sliced thinly
. 5 tomatoes, cut into wedges
. 2 medium or 5 small size tofu
. 6 pickled plums, mashed or whole pieces
. oil
. 5 litres water
For marination of fried fish head:
. 2 tsp white pepper
. 5 tsp salt
. 4 cup cornflour flour, or tapioca flour
For seasoning:
. 2 tbsp fish sauce
. 1tbsp white pepper
. salt to taste (optional)
. 3 tsp sesame oil
. 1 can or 2 evaporated milk
. 6 tbsp Shao Xing Wine or more (optional)
Garnishing:
. spring onions, sliced or cut
Add-on: You can always add extra vegetable like Chinese cabbage or Chinese lettuce. Make sure you have this with cut chilis with soy sauce or some sourish spicy sauce. I also love adding fried onions in my soup.
I will cook this more often for sure.
