Noodles - Asam Laksa

Penang Asam Laksa (Noodle) is very popular. I miss Asam Laksa very much, which my sister-in-law cooks.

I couldn’t find a good Asam Laksa paste in my area. However, my friend in New York sent me ‘CHANHONG’ brand Asam Laksa sauce before, and the taste is good. So I bought a few packs when I was in New York.

Ingredients – Makes 3 servings

· 1 pack ‘CHANHONG’ Asam Laksa sauce which makes 3 servings

· 15 oz or 1 pack fresh Vietnamese noodles, cooked

· 5 cups water

· 1 fish fillet, sliced fine

· Some lettuce, cut into strips

· Some cucumber, cut into strips or grated

· Some pineapple, cut into strips

· Some onion, sliced fine

· Some mint leaves

· A little belacan (shrimp paste)

· 1-2 fresh chili (optional), cut

Method

1. Prepare 3 serving bowls with noodles, lettuce, cucumber, pineapple, onion and mint leaves, then put aside.

2. Add ‘CHANHONG’ Asam Laksa sauce and fish to a pot of boiling water. After the fish is cooked and the soup comes to a boil, pour the hot soup with fish into the bowls of noodles, and garnish belacan and chili. Serve while it is still warm.

槟城的Asam Laksa（亚三叻沙）很著名，我尤其想念我三嫂煮的Asam Laksa。

我这里找不到好吃的Asam Laksa酱，而我朋友在纽约时曾寄给我‘CHANHONG’牌子的Asam Laksa酱，味道很好，当然我去纽约时就买了几包回来。
