Malaysian Style Penang Fried Kuey Teow

An old hawker favorite - spicy flat rice noodles sauteed to perfection with shrimps, garlic, eggs and soy sauce served with slightly stir-fried, still crispy beansprouts. A favorite street food amongst the locals in Malaysia.

Ingredients

1 ½ to 2 lbs kuey teow (flat rice noodles)
1 cup shrimp, peeled, washed, rinsed with salt (or beef sliced into thin slices)
2 cups beansprouts (washed and drained well)
2 chinese sausages (cut thinly - Optional)
1 bunch green onion - cut into cm length
3 cloves garlic-chopped
¼ medium onion-chopped

pinch of salt
2 tsp crushed pepper (optional)
3 eggs-beaten
2 tbsp oil
green onions - cut thinly for garnishing

Add eggs to oil and fry until cooked.
Add kuey teow and stir until well mixed with egg mixture.

Let sit for 2-3 minutes allowing noodles to cover vegetables below.
Stir kuey teow and vegetables until well mixed and vegetables look crispy but heated through.
Add soy sauce and salt to taste.
Use chopped green onions for garnishing.
