Cooking up homemade char kuey teow for me & my middle brother 👩‍🍳

Ms. Que Banh

From yesterday. For me & middle brother.
Homemade char kuey teow.

@PhoenixSerenity Sadly in my current condition that is well out of reach.

Maybe in the future.

@PhoenixSerenity Looks very appetising from here! Is that a Myanmar thing, perhaps? My late Burmese mother-in-law made something that looked v similar, and that was amazing.

@bytebro Malaysian with Chinese influences 👍

@bytebro Here's the background of this dish, if you want to learn more:

It's been part of our family's foods for a long time.

@PhoenixSerenity That's incredibly kind - thank you ma'am. <saved for my next cooking day!>

@bytebro You're welcome. Have a super day 👍

@PhoenixSerenity Ah yes, just spotted this on the Wiki...

"Other common ingredients include fishcake and belachan" and yes, MIL used to add home-made dry balacheung(sp?)" which was amazing flavours.
