Fried Bee Hoon (Chinese Glass Noodle)

What? You must be asking "Who does not know how to fry Bee Hoon? "

No, today I am not going to share with you how to fry Bee Hoon.

I am sharing with you a tip to get Bee Hoon that is "Q" ie springy and you do not need to put a lot, a lot of oil to fry it to prevent it from sticking to your frying pan. And thereafter add lots of water to make sure it is well cooked.

Sound good right? Again, this is easy to achieve.


What do you need

A big pot
Water (enough to cover your dried bee hoon)
½ packet of Bee Hoon (the portion is up to you)
Another empty pot with lid

Method

Fill the big pot with water, bring the water to boil.
Put the Bee Hoon straight from the packaging into the pot. (Yes, you do not need to pre-soak it)
Cook the Bee Hoon in the boiling water till soft
Remove the Bee Hoon from the boiling water and put them straight into the empty pot. Cover the pot with the lid and let the Bee Hoon rest inside for about 10 mins. This step will keep the Bee Hoon moist and Q (spongy).

10 mins later, your Bee Hoon is ready to be use for frying.

Remember, you do not need to add a lot of oil.  You only need oil to fried your garlic, ingredients and add in the Bee Hoon last. When the Been Hoon is well coated with the seasoning (ie you don't see any white Bee Hoon) your Been Hoon is done.
