Recipe's preparation

  1. 1. Add onion, ginger, garlic and chilli paste (or chilli if using) to the TM bowl and chop for 5 seconds on speed 5. Scrape down the sides of TM bowl with a spatula, add your oil and saute for 2 minutes, 100 degrees, speed 1, MC OFF.



    2. Add soy sauce, oyster sauce, tomato sauce and water and to TM bowl and cook for 5 minutes, 100 degrees, spoon speed (slowest speed), MC ON.




    3. Add chicken to TM bowl and cook for 1 minute, varoma, reverse, spoon speed (slowest speed), MC ON.



    4. Add noodles, salt, bean sprouts (if using) and greens to TM bowl. Use a spatula and give them a good stir to coat in the sauce as much as you can. Cook for 4 minutes, varoma, reverse, spoon speed (slowest speed), MC ON. NOTE: There is no need to pre-cook or rinse the noodles, they are used straight from the packet - SEE TIPS BELOW.



    5. When the noodles have finished cooking, check to see the meat is cooked then pour the contents of the TM bowl into a thermoserver and let sit for about 5 minutes with the lid on to soak up some of the liquid before serving. Optional: Garnish with fried shallots, spring onion, fresh coriander, chilli.

Tip

NOTE: As this is cooked in a Thermomix and not on the stove, it will seem quite "watery". In the last step make sure you let it sit to absorb some of the liquid before serving. It is meant to have a little bit of sauce anyway.

You can use prawns or any other meat in place of the chicken. I often use thinly sliced beef. Check in step 5 if the meat is cooked and if not, add an extra 2 minutes and check again.

I use hokkien noodles cold from the fridge section as I find they hold their shape better than the shelf life noodles. There is no need to rinse or pre-cook the noodles. HOT TIP: not rinsing them is a good way to ensure they hold their shape and do not shred.


This recipe has been handed down to me by Malay/Singapore/Indonesian family members and is authentic to our family. I have a stove top version available on my Instagram. This was converted to Thermomix at the request of my group members who wanted Thermo steps. It uses a very similar method to my Laksa Noodle Stir fry recipe also here on the recipe community.

Thermomix Model

    Recipe is created for
    TM 6
    For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.

    TM 5
    If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
    For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.
    Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!

    I tried this last night and loved it! One question though, is there anything you can recommend to give the noodles a more fried feeling? Cooking it all together turned them a little softer/soupier than I'd hoped. Either way I will absolutley be having it again... the flavour was 10/10!

    Wow.Just Wow! Made some mods as I am on a plant based diet and hence, no oil and no meat products. In substitution, I used oyster mushrooms and water. Everything else remained as per the recipe and it was just awesome. Thank you very much for sharing this recipe.
