Making Hor Fun (Rice Noodles)
During the Cookalong under Jackie’s expert guidance, I successfully learned to make Hor Fun using the recipe for Wat Tan Hor (Kuay Teow Siram) whilst Jackie was frying onions (yes, more onions!) and making Rice Noodles for Chee Cheong Fun. Cathy was making Onde-Onde. I totally agree with Jackie that Cathy’s Onde-Onde are award-worthy & she is a total Pro now. Jenny was late joining, but she wasted no time & jumped straight into action.
Watching Jackie devouring her Chee Cheong Fun for breakfast, I was salivating buckets!
My only complaint was I had given away my steamer set sometime ago, so I had to make do with the Chinese Dim Sum/Yum Cha basket which was too small for the job. While Jackie crafted 1 big Hor Fun sheet, I struggled churning out 3 tiny ones to match hers. She started making the CCF batter minutes after me, she overtook & wrapping up the job long before I finished. Think I need to buy a bigger Dim Sum basket.
Neverthless, I was very happy with my Hor Fun. It was so light & smooth. I made Wat Tan Hor with the Hor Fun. I charred the Hor Fun in small batches in wok-scorched heat first. Then I made the sauce to cook the meat & Hor Fun followed by breaking in an egg after switching off the stove. The Wat Tan Hor was scrumptious & the wok hey from the charred noodles was spot-on! Grateful thanks to Jackie for the guidance. 💕
