The secret to Yi Mein’s deliciousness is that it is deep-fried Cantonese egg noodles. This means that when you purchase it, this golden yellow color noodle is already cooked, but since it is deep-fried and dry, it can be stored for a long time without losing its flavor. The deep-frying process adds flavor to the noodles, making them distinctly different.

I am happy to share this traditional Chinese braised Yi Mein recipe with you, which is popular among the Chinese in Malaysia.
