Been practicing for 3 weeks before I came how to make hokkien mee for M's bday (recipe from the burning kitchen). He has been craving this since the day he came to Geneva and it's the dish he misses most. I was quite proud of my attempts as everyone commented it tasted quite original! So with confidence, I came to Geneva thinking I would wing it and surprise him on his birthday.
Unfortunately, after hunting around and hiking to the Asian grocer in France, I still could not get the right yellow noodles and vermicelli. Seafood is crazily expensive too! And more bad news... I forgot to bring the sambal chilli 😫!! NOOOOOO!!! So the end product is above- substandard hokkien mee. 😔
M was quite sweet though and still said it was good.
Hi Pee! How have you been doing? This looks so good! Gotta learn the recipe from you someday! Hehe. I realize we didn't get your Swiss number! Hope we can stay in touch here! Lotsa love, pee <3
