Wonton Noodles are also known as Wonton Mee (云吞面) is a typical dish in Asian country especially in Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, Thailand, and Hong Kong. Wonton noodles can be served dry or with soup, it depends on the personal favorite. Wonton noodles are made of egg noodles. You can get this dish from Kopitiam (Chinese authentic coffee shop) or the roadside hawker stalls. The noodles are great with pickled green chilies. They are an essential condiment to the dish and easy to make. Besides, wonton noodles also can be topped with crispy fried shallots – this will make the noodles more aromatic. In Malaysia, Char Siu and Wanton is the best combination of Wonton noodles. Let’s make it!
Wonton filled with juicy pork and shrimp/prawn filling. There are big difference between the frozen wonton you bought from groceries and homemade wonton, which is the freshness and the texture of the filling – this is because homemade wonton is just made with the fresh ingredients!
