indonesian noodles

Recipe video above. These noodles tossed in a sticky savoury sweet sauce originates from Indonesia but is also popular in Malaysia. With chicken, prawns, vegetables and the signature egg ribbons, it&#x27;s pretty fully loaded! They&#x27;re commonly made by street vendors with instant noodles which give it the familiar crinkly noodle look, but feel free to use any noodles you want. (PS Ketchup is authentic!)
